This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on library shelves before it was carefully scanned by Google as part of a project
to make the world's books discoverable online.
It has survived long enough for the copyright to expire and the book to enter the public domain. A public domain book is one that was never subject
to copyright or whose legal copyright term has expired. Whether a book is in the public domain may vary country to country. Public domain books
are our gateways to the past, representing a wealth of history, culture and knowledge that's often difficult to discover.
Marks, notations and other marginalia present in the original volume will appear in this file - a reminder of this book's long journey from the
publisher to a library and finally to you.
Usage guidelines
Google is proud to partner with libraries to digitize public domain materials and make them widely accessible. Public domain books belong to the
public and we are merely their custodians. Nevertheless, this work is expensive, so in order to keep providing this resource, we have taken steps to
prevent abuse by commercial parties, including placing technical restrictions on automated querying.
We also ask that you:
+ Make non-commercial use of the files We designed Google Book Search for use by individuals, and we request that you use these files for
personal, non-commercial purposes.
+ Refrain from automated querying Do not send automated queries of any sort to Google's system: If you are conducting research on machine
translation, optical character recognition or other areas where access to a large amount of text is helpful, please contact us. We encourage the
use of public domain materials for these purposes and may be able to help.
+ Maintain attribution The Google "watermark" you see on each file is essential for informing people about this project and helping them find
additional materials through Google Book Search. Please do not remove it.
+ Keep it legal Whatever your use, remember that you are responsible for ensuring that what you are doing is legal. Do not assume that just
because we believe a book is in the public domain for users in the United States, that the work is also in the public domain for users in other
countries. Whether a book is still in copyright varies from country to country, and we can't offer guidance on whether any specific use of
any specific book is allowed. Please do not assume that a book's appearance in Google Book Search means it can be used in any manner
anywhere in the world. Copyright infringement liability can be quite severe.

PREFACE.
This number of the Reoistbr has been compiled with great care
and at no little expense, yet It is doubtless imperfect; but, if errors
are fonnd in the statistics given, it Is hoped that those who notice
them wlU use their Influence to secure more complete and accurate
returns for ftature numbers.
Some new and interesting matter will be found in this number,
whicli will add to its value, and should make it wanted in every
Universalist home.
The Register is considered indispensable as a book of reference,
and is published for the benefit of the Denomination, and, usually,
at an expense not realized flrom its sales. This being the case, it is
expected that the denominational press, clergymen, and others in-
terested, wUl help to make It known, and extend its circulation.
Cordial thanks are rendered to those who have helped to ftimish
material for this number, and an earnest request is hereby made
that the statistics for 1868 be forwarded early ttom all parts of the
country.

held in Chicago, it assumed a permanent organization for
the promotion of the interests of Universalist Christianity

thousand dollars ($180,000), secured for denominational
purposes.

Schools. — 1. Clinton Liberal Institute, Clinton, eight
miles from Utica, is under the control of the State Conven-
tion. It was founded in 1831, and is thus, by many years,
the oldest of our literary institutions. However much of
benefit it has conferred upon the denomination in past years,
it has never, probably, been in a better condition to do good
service than it now is. An extensive course of study has
been arranged, and the students receive diplomas after com-
pleting the course. The school is under good supervision,
the instruction thorough, the discipline mild but firm, and a
moral and social influence pervades the school and boarding-
bouses. Whole number of students for the past year, 253 ;
gentlemen, 184; ladies, 119. Attendance: fall term, 156;
winter term, 190 ; summer term, 85.

Fisher, D.D., and Rev. O. Cone. Its assets, including
Building Fund, Library, and Invested Funds of $43,000,
amount to $63,000. A separate building is needed, and
within two years will become a necessity, costing some
$20,000. Another Professorship is also required, and will
be indispensable with the growth of the school. The Library
contains 5,500 vols., to which is added $200 worth of books
yearly. It has a small Loan Fund of $770, with which to
aid indigent students. Since its commencement it has had
69 students, of whom 25 .are now members of the school,

The year 1866 has witnesaed the best financial work ever
done for the Universalist denomination in any one year.
There have been given, as nearly as we can estimate, for
varioas denominational purposes, chiefly educational and
missionary, the following sums : —
In the form of bequests to oar educational iDStitutions,
about $300,000
In subscriptions and donations for the same, about . . 272,000
For missionary uses, church Ainds, &c., . . . 33,000
For church edifices, dedicated during the year, . • 435,000
Making a total of ...... $1,040,000
or, in round numbers, one million dollars, as the year's addition to
the permanent resources of the denomination.
The trarment contributions for the year, or annual expen-
ditures, cannot be ascertained with any very near approach
to accuracy. An approximate estimate has been made, as
follows :
Of the 512 ministers in fellowship, it may be presumed
that four-fifths of them are In active service, and on
salaries averaging $700 — which would require . $287,000
The 700 organized societies spend probably for repairs,
music, fUel, light, services of sexton, &c., an average
of $200 — making 140,000
Then we pay for our several periodicals, each year, not
less than 90,000
For denomiuatiouol books, iuclndlDg Sunday School
books, about 40,000
For teachers in our schools and colleges, some . . 53,000
And for incidental expenses in these institutions, . 15,000
Making a total of about 625,000
This added to the above, 1,040,000
Gives a round sum of $1,665,000
Over a million and a half paid or contributed in the interests of
UniverSaUsm during the year 1866.

From the above it appears that our bequests aud contribu-
tions for special purposes during the year have amounted to
nearly twice the sum of our regular annual expenditures for
the support of public worship, Sunday Schools, denomina-
tional books, periodicals, And educational institutions, all
together. Is this true of any other denomination ? Will it
ever be the case with us any future year ?
BIOGRAPHICAL RECORD.
Rev. Ammi Bond died in Conneaut, Ohio, Jan. 3, 1866,
aged 63. A native of New Hampshire, his early life was
spent in that State and in Vermont. At 16 he became a
member of the Methodist Church. He afterwards resided
two years in Quebec (where he married) and in Montreal,
removing thence to Philadelphia. Here he attended upon
the ministry of the late Rev. S. R. Smith, and became a
confirmed and happy Universalist. His attention was soon
called to the gospel ministry. Removing to Vermont, he
was fellowshipped by the Green Mountain Association, in
1832. The next year he was ordained, and he was after-
wards settled in Carroll, N. Y., Saybrook, Ohio, Adrian,
Mich, Monroe, Ohio, Beaver, and Pittsburg, Pa. He had
resided in Conneaut, Pa., and vicinity, since 1843, till last
summer, when he removed to Conneaut, Ohio.
Mr. Bond was an acceptable preacher in our connection
some thirty-five years. Having a strong and logical mind,
he possessed more than ordinary pulpit power. For two
years he had sufiered much from disease, his mind falling
with his body ; but he died as he had lived, in hope of a
re-union with all he had loved and lost, in the Home Im-

mortal. He left a widow and seven children to moam his
loss.
Captain Nathaniel G. B. Dexter, familiarly known as
Grandpa Dexter, died in Pawtucket, R. I., April 8, 1866,
aged 77. He was a native of Groton, Mass., but removing
early in life to Pawtucket, he became a member and subse-
quently a teacher in a Sunday School established there, after
the model of the English Sunday Schools. An interest in
Sunday Schools was thus awakened, which he retained after
they assumed a strictly religious character, and which he
carried with him to the day of his death. In his old age it
was his greatest delight to visit them, and to address the
pupils, who always hailed his coming with joy. He was an
earnest advocate for temperance, never having tasted a drop
of liquor in his life. Captain Dexter was a devoted Univer-
salist, and a member of the Church in Pawtucket. He died
calmly and sweetly in the faith he had adorned by a long and
exemplary life. He was a teacher in the first Sunday School
in the United States.
SiLVANUs Packard, long connected with the School Street
Church, Boston, died in April, 1866, at the advanced age of
76. He was blest with great wealth, the larger portion of
which he gave to Tufts College. He had been a generous
benefactor of the institution from its start, and, dying with-
out issue, he bequeathed the bulk of his large estate to pro-
mote its usefulness in years to come. It is understood that
besides other and far greater benefits to the College, his
will contemplates the endowment of a theological pro-
fessorship, the education annually of ten students free of
charge, and the expending of $200 annually for prizes, to
encourage general excellence. By his generosity to the

cause, he still speaks, bidding our men of means to '^ go

Rev. Theodore Clapp died in Louisville, Ey., May 16,
1866, aged 74. He was a native of Easthampton, Mass.,
and a graduate of Williams College, in the same class with
William Cullen Bryant. His theological studies were pur-
sued at Andover, and he was licensed as a minister of the
Presbyterian Church in 1817. *' In 1822," says the Star in
the West^ ^^he became pastor of the First Presbyterian
Church of New Orleans, succeeding the brilliant and elo<
quent Sylvester Larned, whose fame as a pulpit orator is
yet one of the traditions of the Mississippi Valley. As
pastor of this church Mr. Clapp achieved great celebrity,
and became widely known for effective pulpit gifts and the
highest order of sacred eloquence. Henry Clay pronounced
him the most natural pulpit orator he ever heard. His
church in New Orleans was invariably crowded, and for
many years he was one of the most popular pulpit orators of
America. Some ten or twelve years after his settlement in
New Orleans, changes occurred in his theological opinions,
which led to the dissolution of his relations with the Pres-
byterian Church. He was deposed from the office of the
gospel ministry for heresy, and was afterwards known as an
independent minister, cherishing Unitarian and Universalist
opinions. The change in his relations with the Mississippi
Presbytery did not, however, involve a separation from his
parish. The church building at an earlier date had passed
under the control of the well-known Hebrew millionnaire,
Judah Truro, and by his liberality Mr. Clapp occupied the
church and preached to his old hearers, deriving his salary
from the income of the pew rents, which income was placed,
under the immediate control of Mr. Clapp. His pastoral
services will long be remembered with gratitude in New

Orleans. During twenty seasons of epidemical cholera and
yellow fever, Mr. Clapp was at the post of duty, and by his
ministry of consolation carried comfort to the great multi-
tudes stricken by the pestilence. His ^ Autobiographical
BecoUections ' is largely devoted to incidents pertaining to
these memorable seasons, and is one of the most interesting
volumes ever published. Several years ago, failing health
compelled him to relinquish the pastoral charge of the church
at New Orleans, since wliich time he has lived in compara-
tive retirement in Louisville. His death, it seems, was not
unexpected, his health being very feeble for some time pre-
vious to his decease. The Louisville Journal^ in announcing
his death, says : ' He seemed to have no particular disease, and
his dissolution seems to have been the result of a general
giving away of the whole system, mental and physical. The
mortal machinery was worn out, and at length ceased to
perform its fbnctions. His reason forsook her august throne
weeks ago, and did not, so far as we are advised at the pres-
ent writing, return to it.' Mr. Clapp leaves a widow and
two sons to weep over his departure."
Major General Ltsander Cutler died at his home in Mil-
waukee, July 80, 1866. A native of Royalton, Mass., early
in life he removed to Dexter, Me., where he acquired the
reputation of being an enterprising business man. Much of
the prosperity of that growing manufacturing town is owing
to him. At last, meeting with reverses, he removed to Mil-
waukee, where he resided at the breaking out of the rebel-
lion. Tendering his services to the Governor of the State,
he was appointed to the command of the 6th A¥isconsin
regiment. In the second battle of Bull Run he was severely
wounded in the thigh, from the effects of which he never
ftilly r«coyered, though in a few weeks he resumed his post

in the army, and was promoted to a Brigadiership. He led
the first column that met the rebels on the bloody field of
Gettysburg, and was in the whole of that terrible strife,
having three horses shot from under him, but escaping un-
harmed. He was with the Army of the Potomac in its ter-
rible struggles in the march of the Wilderness and the siege
of Richmond. Receiving a wound in the face at the taking
of the South Side Railroad, he was granted leave of absence,
and was finally detailed, on account of infirmities, on special
service in Michigan. At the close of the war, after receiv-
ing the appointment of Major General by brevet, he resigned
his commission, and re-engaged in business in Milwaukee.
If his army record was honorable, his devotedness to
Universalism was no less so. In Dexter, Me., he was for
many years the heaviest paying member of the society.
Wlien in Milwaukee tliere was no Universalist meeting, he
was an attendant of the Unitarian Church ; but when the
time arrived for the establishment of a Universalist Society,
he was one of the first to enroll his name as a member, and
to give his means and influence in favor of the movement.
He did not live, however, to see but the beginning, and he
passed away before his hopes for a permanent society in his
Western home were fully realized. In his death a loyal
people were bereaved, a young society met with a heavy loss,
and a widow and several children and grand-children were
left to mourn. He died at the age of 59.
Rev. Sbth Barnes, the successful and beloved pastor of
the church in Minneapolis, Minn., died suddenly in a fit of
apoplexy, Sunday morning, August 12, 1866.
Awaking that morning, he conversed in a cheerful, hope-
ful spirit, and was feeling better than usual, his health hav-
ing been poor for some time. After partly rising from his
Digitized

76 UNITSR8ALI8T REGI9rBR
bed, he laid back again, and passed away without a groan.
We have heard that he often expressed a wish to die in this
way. His sermon was lying on the table, and the last words
were these : ^^ He hath tasted death for every man." In this
faith Br. Barnes died. In the full belief of God's love, and
power, and eternal goodness, he passed victoriously on. His
last delivered sermon was from the text, '*For the spirit it-
self beareth witness with oar spirit that we are the children
of God."
Brother Barnes was much beloved by his congregation,
with whom he had been connected eleven years, and for whom
he had labored well and faithfblly. As a man and a citizen
he enjoyed a large share of the confidence of his neighbors
and fellow-citizens, arising from his kindness and urbanity,
no less than from his interest in all that concerned the pros-
perity and welfare of his place of residence. The end of
such a man is peace ; the pain is to those who are left be-
hind. His loss fails heavily upon our whole church in the
West, and especially upon the Universalists of Minnesota.
He left a wife in feeble health, to whom he had been more
than husband, to mourn her irreparable loss.
Of Mr. Barnes' age, and the history of his ministry, we
have no particulars. This short notice we have culled from
our Western papers. The biography of such a man should
be written and preserved.
Dr. John Brooks, long and favorably known in the
Universalist denomination, died at the place of his residence
in Bemardston, Mass., Sept. 9, 1866. He was born in
Worcester, Jan. 12, 1783. His early advantages for obtain-
ing an education were limited, and he was religiously taught
the strictest doctrines of the Calvinistic faith. But a reten-
tive memory enabled him to overcome, to some extent, the
Digitized
by Google
AND ALMANAC FOR 1M7. 77
deficiencies in his early school-life, while it made him thor^
oughly familiar with the doctrines in which he was reared.
At the age of sixteen he commenced teaching, by which he
obtained means to attend an academy a few terms. His
preparatory medical studies were pursued with the celebrated
Dr, Kittredge, of Walpole, N. H. ; and he commenced
practice in Newfane and Dummerston, Vt., at the age of 28.
While pursuing the duties of his profession, his attention
was called to questions of religious doctrine ; and a diligent
study of the Scriptures brought him to the belief of the final
salvation of a world. In connection with his practice, he
entered upon the duties of a Christian minister. In 1622,
he removed to Bemardston, Mass., and became the pastor
of the Universalist Society there, preaching also in neigh-
boring towns, as opportunity offered. After a few years, a
difficulty in his throat compelled him to relinquish regular
public speaking, and he gradually withdrew from the minis-
try, devoting himself entirely to the practice of medicine,
which he steadily pursued till within a few months of his
death.
Dr. Brooks was an excellent citizen, and his interest in
every good cause made him to be respected in the commu-
nity. His townsmen showed their appreciation of his worth
by electing him seven years to the State Legislature ; and
he filled the duties of his office with dignity and honor.
As a physician, he was skilled and faithfbl. Few excelled
him. His interest in his patients was not one of dollars and
cents, but of hearty sympathy. He is remembered with
gratitude in many families.
Aged as he was, he emphatically lived in the present
rather than in the past, being deeply interested in and thor-
oughly conversant with the religious and political affairs of
the country to the day of his death. Of commanding pres-

ence, with a large Aind of knowledge, a perfect treasury ot
anecdote and story, he was a pleasant and instructive com-
panion, and conld entertain a philosopher or amuse a child.
As a preacher, he is favorably remembered by the older
citizens of Bemai^dston and vicinity ; and much of the lib-
eral sentiment prevailing there is to be ascribed to his early
labors. He was one of the ex-ministers who are a blessing
to the society with which they are connected. He was
deeply religions in his nature, and benevolent in his disposi-
tion. Till within a few years of his death he occupied a
place in the choir, and nothing but absolute necessity could
keep him from church on the Sabbath. He died, as he had
lived, in the faith of the gospel, falling sweetly and gently
to sleep on the Lord's day — that of all the week he loved
best.
Rev. Henrt Lton died in Williamsburg, N. Y., Sept, 16,
1866, aged 52. We have no means of learning the exact
date of his entrance upon the ministry, which extended over
a period of about thirty years. He was long and favorably
known to the Universalist public as the Publishing Agent of
the '^ Ambassador," and the publisher of Universalist books in
New York City. Those who a few years ago were accus-
tcHned to frequent the " Ambassador " office, will always re-
member his genial smile, his quiet demeanor, and his accom-
modating spirit, manifested alike to all. Free from jealousy,
from envy, from peevishness, from all the foibles which
make the character unamiable, he possessed the positive
virtues of a loving heart, a true fidelity, a consecrated de-
votion to what he deemed Christian truth, and to the means
by which that truth is to be disseminated among men.
Three years before his death, while attending the New
York Convention, he contracted a violent cold, which rapidly
Digitized
by Google
AND ALMANAC FOB 1807. 79
developed a pulmonary consumption. Violent hemorrhages
of the lungs followed, by which he was completely pros-
trated, and brought near the grave. He rallied, however,
and, though subject to frequent attacks of bleeding, was
able to attend to business, and even preach at intervals.
His disease reached its crisis about ten days before his
death. He was conscious that the inevitable hour was at
hand, and, making such preparations as were necessary, he
committed himself, with child-like confidence, to the hands
of his Heavenly Father. A wife and a large family of chil-
dren, with a wide circle of attached friends, mourn the loss of
a good man and a sincere and devout Christian.
•
Rev. H. L. Bingham, a recent graduate of the Canton
Theological School, died in the autumn. Dr. Fisher says of
him :
'^ He entered the Theological School in September, 1865,
and, after remaining in it some months, left under the sad
coercion of failing health ; but with a hope, destined never
to be realized, of returning under more favorable conditions
to consummate the cherished purposes of his life. The great
love and longing of his heart was for the Christian ministry ;
and such earnest devotion, joined to good talents, and a win-
ning disposition, sincere, generous, and manly, would no
doubt have made him useM and beloved therein.
Had his life been spared, his work would, I doubt not,
have been at once honorable to God, useful to man, and
gratifying to himself. However bright such prospects might
seem, our Heavenly Father has called him away from them
all to himself; because he had a better use and service for
him- This must be true, if our Father acts on a wise and
true economy, which of course he does.
His decease is a loss to the denomination ; for such noble

young men are our jewels. His name will often be recalled
with a kind remembrance, and a sympathetic word, by many
who knew and loved him."
Mr. Bingham left a wife, amiable and talented, and quite
widely known by the productions of her pen, with whom he
had been united but a few months, to mourn his loss.
Rev. Charles W. Mellen, pastor of the church in Taun-
ton, Mass., depaited this life, after a short but distressing
illness, Oct. 22, 1866. A native of Phillipston, Mass., he
was born June 18, 1818. At the age of seven he removed
with his parents to Greenfield. He received his education
in the town of Hardwick. With a view to the ministry, he
studied with Rev. J. H. Willis, preaching his first sermon in
Stafford, Conn., where Mr. Willis was then settled. His
first settlement was in Royalton, Mass., in 1839. His sev-
eral subsequent settlements were in Orange, Foxboro', Can-
ton, Chelmsford, Wej^mouth, Dorchester, and Taunton.
Mr. Mellen was a consecrated minister. It is great praise
to say, that he never did harm ; it is greater praise to add,
that he always did good. His manners were simple. He
had no ostentation. He always felt what he said. In his
entire ministry, he was profoundly and thoroughly sincere.
He had unusual ability and excellent culture, though not of
that showy quality which is called popular. He was in-
dustrious. He knew his duties, and he performed them.
He was heartily devoted to every good work. The cause of
temperance had in him a champion ; and in his death the
slave and the freed man may sincerely mourn. He was hab-
itually cheerful. When he gave his hand, a smile always
accompanied the act. By his decease, a denomination oi
Christians suffers a loss that will long be felt. He was re-
spected by all persons of all denominations, and his suddes

death was motimed by the whole community in which he
lived.
He left a wife, with whom he had lived twenty-six years,
to moam the loss of one of the kindest of companions.
Bey. Stlvahus Cobb, D.D., departed this life at his resi-
dence in East Boston, Mass., Oct. 31, 1866. Dr. Cobb was
bom in Norway, Me., July, 1788, and died at the venerable
age of sixty-eight years and three months. His early edu-
cation was wholly under Orthodox influences ; but early in
life he became a Universalist, and this without the help of
any teacher, or any book but the Bible. For several years,
when quite young, he was a successful teacher in the winter
schools of his native county. His preparatory theolc^cal
studies were pursued with the Rev. Sebastian Streeter, and
his first sermon was preached in the pulpit of his honored
teacher, in Portsmouth, N. H., at the age of twenty-one.
He was ordained at the session of the Eastern Associa-
tion (now the Maine Convention), held in Winthrop in 1821.
His first settlement was in Waterville, Me. where his ear-
nest labors resulted, not only in the establishment of a vig-
orous society, but also in the wide difibsion of the doctrine
through the entire Kennebec valley. From Waterville he
removed to Maiden, Mass., and became pastor of the society
there, with equally successful results. After a pastorate of
ten years he removed to Waltham. While there he started
the Christian FVeeman. In 184 9 he moved to East Boston,
where he resided till his death. Three years of the time he
was the pastor of the East Boston society. His intellect
and strength, however, were given to the care of the Free-
manj and the toil and labor he bestowed upon it would have
broken down a less vigorous constitution. In 1862 the
Freeman and Trumpet were united. Dr. Cobb remaining as

Theological editor. Two years ago he retired firom edito-
rial labor, after a service in that capacity of about thirty
years.
Dr. Cobb was constantly engaged in writing. His teem-
ing brain was ever elaborating ideas, to which he felt that he
must give expression. Many of his earlier controversial
sermons were published and widely circulated in Maine and
elsewhere, doing good service for the cause. His '* Discus-
sions" with Dr. Adams and Mr. Hudson, involving the
subjects of everlasting punishment and the annihilation of
the wicked, were also put into book form, after appearing in
the columns of the Freeman. The " Compend of Divinity '*
is an elaborate work, and recognized as a standard in the
denomination. This series of books very fitly closed with
his " Commentary on the New Testament," which is received
with favor wherever it is known.
The Trustees of Tuft's College, recognizing his ability
and learning, conferred upon him, two yeai's before his
death, the honorary degree of Doctor of Divinity. It is
seldom the degree is so worthily bestowed, or so gracefully
worn. His merits as a writer, preacher, and theologian, are
universally conceded, both in and out of the denomination.
Among the stalwart minds which have done so much to
establish the doctrine of universal salvation on a permanent
basis, his will ever hold a conspicuous position. And he
was a Universalist, not only in his creed. He was in hearty
sympathy with the denomination. For it it was alike his
pride and joy to labor. He saw, with a clearness of vision
that few have, that the cause should be established on a
right basis ; and, therefore, he was the earnest advocate of
temperance, freedom, and every true reform.
Dr. Cobb had been in declining health for many months
previous to his death, and was fully conscious that his work
Digitized

AKD ALMANAC FOB 18«7. 88
was finished. During the suinmer he was accustomed to
converse freely with his family of his approaching departure.
He was always strong in the faith, always resigned, always
cheerful and full of hope. Though his closing hours were
those of unconsciousness, yet even in his delirium he was
continually preaching, rehearsing the texts, '^ Praise the
Lord ; " '' How great is his goodness." In a ripe old age
he has passed away, and not only a family, but a denomina*
tion mourns. ^^ The memory of the just is blessed."
Rev. Calvin Gardner, whose decease should have been
noticed in our last issue, died very suddenly in Waterville,
Me., March 23, 1865, aged sixty-six. He was a native of
Hingham, Mass., and in his early life wrought steadily at
his trade, in one of the mechanic arts. Becoming interested
in the doctrine of universal salvation, he entered the minis-
try in 1825, and the following year was settled over the
society in Charlestown, Mass. He afterwards preached in
Duxbury two years, and in 1830 accepted a call from the
First Universalist society in Lowell. While in that city he
projected and published, in company with another, the ^^ Uni-
versalist and Ladies^ Repositji-y" now known simply as " The
Ladie^ Jtepositoiy.*' In 1833 he removed to Waterville, Me.,
to take charge of the Universalist society there, made vacant
by the removal of Rev. Sylvanus Cobb to Maiden, Mass.
His pastorship in that beautiful village continued for twenty
years. Afterwards he was settled two years in Province-
town, Mass., at the expiration of which he returned to his
home in Waterville, and devoted his time to the culture of
his land, and the work of an itinerant. During his resi-
dence in Maine, he was for several years an associate editor
of the " Gospel Banner^*' and one year represented Water-
ville in the State Legislature.

Br. Gardner was an able preacher. In the days of his
manly strength few ministers exerted a wider influence. At
the conventions and associations of Maine which he gener-
ally attended, he was usually selected to deliver the closing
sermon, as one who was sure to leave a good impression on
the minds of those present. He always had something to
say, and his hearers were sure to remember wJuU he said.
Some of the best sermons the writer ever listened to came
from his lips.
No man could be more highly respected in the community
in which he lived, and none more lamented in death. He
was twice married, leaving a widow, two daughters, and
several grandchildren to mourn his loss.
OXJB CENTBNASrr,
The question has been raised during the past year, when
the Universalist Centenary will occur. We have given the
subject some thought, and have come to the conclusion that
no time is so fitting for its observance as the year 1870,
which marks a century fVom the landing of John Murray, at
Good Luck, New Jersey. It is indeed true, as some have
suggested, that Universalism had been preached in this
country before that event. So was the doctrine of "justifi-
cation by faith" preached and believed before Martin
Luther*s day ; but it never, after the days of the apostles,
became a living power in the church, till it came from the
lips of the converted Monk. There were those who held to
"perfect sanctification " before the time of the Wesleys;
but none made it a central doctrine, till they preached it in
England. So Universalism, after its condemnation by the
Council of Constantinople, A. D. 553, never became a cen-
tral thought — a living, burning power in the world — till it
Digitized

AXD ALMANAC FOX 1M7. 85
was dispensed from the eloquent lips of John Murray, as he
travelled through New England and the Middle States,
preaching to listening and eager crowds. Then it began to
exist as a'' distinctive doctrine, and its progress has been
steadily onward to the present day. We believe our tnie
Centenary will occur in 1870, rather than, as has been sug-
gested, at the organization of the Church in Gloucester,
Mass. ; and we trust suitable preparation will be made for
its proper observance in that year. Let it be a year of
jubilee ; of general rejoicing and activity through the denom-
ination ; and of the laying of our free-will offerings on the
altar of Universalism.
MISOPlTiTi A NBOXTB.
The True Apostles' Creed. — There is one God, and
one mediator, between God and men, the man Christ Jesus ;
who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due
time. 1 Tim. ii. 5, 6.
An Apt Reply. — Two little girls, one from an Episcopal
family, and the other a Universalist, were conversing togeth-
er on the sin of profane swearing. The little Episcopalian
said ^' she would not swear, because if she did God would
burn her forever." The little Universalist replied, " That
would be worse than swearing, and a good God would do
no such wicked thing." Was not the child's thought wiser
than that of many an astute theologian?
Rightly Viewed. — An eminent divine. President of a
New-England College, conversing with a student who was
a Universalist, made the following candid admission : ^' Uni-
versalism, rightly Tiewed, is the noblest and most ennobling

doctrine conceived by the human mind.*' However wrongly
some professed Universalists may regard their doctrine, —
and we are inclined to think there are many whose concep-
tion of the truth is low and unworthy, — it seems that the
divine above-mentioned himself had a correct idea of what
Universalism really is. No other thought is so grand as
that of a Deity overruling all things for good and bringing a
world in love and obedience to him ; and none other other is
BO well adapted to inspire sentiments of obedience and love
in the hearts of those who rightly receive it.
Quoting Scripture. — A curious illustration of the kind of
Scripture often quoted to prove controverted points, occurred
in a village lyceum. The question under discussion was,
whether *' spectres ever appear." One man stoutly con-
tended for the negative, because the Bible says, " We are
all rapidly approaching that undiscovered country from
whose bourne no traveller returns " ; and when his opponent
affirmed that the passage was not in the Bible, the reply was,
" Well, if it is not in the Bible, it is in the hymn-book." It
is needless to say that the question was decided in the neg-
ative, for the evidence was deemed authoritative. The joke
of the thing was, that nobody present knew what the quota-
tion was from, and none could tell but that it was in the
hymn-book.
The Rule that Wouldn't Work Both Wats. — Old
Father Pitts, of Winthrop, Me., was a life-long Universalist.
He was a blacksmith, in moderate circumstances, with a large
family to support. Father Thurston was the town's minister,
for whose support all were taxed. When Mr. P. was called
upon for his tax, he asked the collector to see if Mr. Thurs-
ton would not consent to remit it, since he [Mr. Pitte] h*d

not attended Mr. T/s meetings during the year. Mr. Thurs-
ton a reply was, " The doors are open ; it is your duty to
attend ; the tax must be paid.*'
The next 3'ear when the collector called, Mr. Pitts pre-
sented an account against Mr. Thurston for shoeing his
horse, and requested the collector to ask the parson to per-*
mit the account to offset the tax. The minister soon called
in great excitement, expressing his astonishment at the
charge on the blacksmith's books, and affirming that his horse
had not been in Mr. P.'s shop for the year. *' I know it,"
was the reply, " but my doors are open; it is your duty to
bring him, and I don't see but the account must be paid."
Mr. Pitts was never again troubled with a tax for the sup-
port of Mr. Thurston.
Ak Unfortunate Dilemma. A minister in another de-
nomination than ours, once attempted to preach fVom the
words found in Hebrews ii. 14, 15 : " Forasmuch then as the
children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself
took part of the same : that through death he might destroy
him that hath the power of death, that is, the devil ; and de-
liver them who through fear of death were all their life-time
subject to bondage." '' I thought," said he, in relating it,
" I understood the passage. I got along very well in de-
stroying death and him that had the power of death ; but
when I came to deliver those who through fear of death were
all their life-time subject to bondage, I found I was in diffi-
culty. If I applied it to the righteous it seemed inappro-
priate to say that they were in bondage to the fear of death ;
and if I applied it to the wicked I found that they would
then be saved. I closed my sermon as best I could. Though
apparently satisfying my hearers, I did not satisfy myself:
and from that hour a train of thought commenced which did

not cease till I embraced the doctrine of Universal Salva-
tion." Was not the dilemma of that good man one in which
every one, not believiog in Universalism, must find himself,
who attempts to explain the passage? The above is an
actual occurrence, and was related to the writer by the min-
ister referred to.
Short and Expressive. — Rev. Seth Stetson, of Maine,
now in his ninety-first year, like many other aged ministers,
is dependent upon the free-will oflTerings of his friends for
support. But no man ever, had a serener trust than he.
"The Lord will provide," is his invariable reply to those
who ask him how he expects to meet the exigencies of the
fhture.
For many years it has been the pleasure of the brethren
attending the Maine Convention, to make up a purse for his
benefit. The first collection for this purpose was at the
meeting in Turner in 1851. As the sum of fifty dollars was
put in his hands by the Moderator, the old saint arose, and
with streaming eyes, exclaimed, " Brethren, I thank the
Lord — and you too ! "
Should any reader of this incident forward to him, in
Brunswick, Maine, a New Year's or other donation, the
donor will receive the good old man's trembling autograph,
and, doubtless, an equally happy expression of gratitude.

PREFACE.
WET THE REGISTER IS NOT PERFECT.
CoMFLAiNl's are heard, from time to time, that this Register of
the Denomination is imperfect, containing many errors. The com-
pilers spare no pains to obtain the data for a correct Register of the
denomination, its conventions, associations, auxilliary societies,
schools, churches and preachers. But those who make the com-
plaint are often the most backward in furnishing the requisite
information, and those who have the work in hand are obliged to
glean the items from the columns of the denominational press. The
work is laborious, and the information thus obtained is^cantj and
often incorrect.
The General Convention has devised a way by which the correct
statistics of the denomination may be gathered from year to year.
Blanks, which if returned by those to whom they are furnished,
would give all the information needed, are sent to all who promise
to fill and return them, with what result, let the following statement
of the Permanent Secretary show :

and Rales of the General Convention, and the hope expressed that
they will be read and remembered by every preacher, parish clerk,
and recording secretary in the denomination, so that hereafler, reli-
able information may be had and the Register may be perfect :
" Everv Churcli shall provide a book or register, which shall be in the cus-
tody of the Pastor of saia Chnrch, in wb^h the said Pastor shall record all
baptisms, dedications, marriages and funerals, performed or attended by him ;
specifying the name and date of the birth of a child baptized or dedicated,
with the name of the parents. Also, the names of parties married, and the
name of the person buried, with the time of performing each rite; also, noting
wheUier any of the said parties were members of the Church or Denomination,
or were strangers.
And every Clergyman not in pastoral charge of a Church shall keep a simi-
lar register.
Every Pastor of a Church shall make out and continue as far as practicable,
a list or register of all families and adult persons regularly attendant upon the
services of the Church, to remain for the use of his successor, and to be con-
tinued by him.
The Pastor or Secretarv of every Church or Sociehr in fellowship with the
Creneral Convention, shall annually, on or before the mt dav of J uly, present,
or cause to be presented, to the Secretary of the State CTonventiou, within
whose jurisdiction said Church or Society may be situate, a statement of the
number of baptisms, dedications, marriages and funerals performed or attend-
ed; and the number of members admitted to the Church or Society during the
year; the number of members belonging to the Church or Society; the state
and condition of the Sunday Schools, if any attached thereto ; the amount of
money contributed for religious purposes in general, and of all other matters
tiiat may throw light on the state or the Church.
And every other Cleryman not regularly settled as Pastor of a Church or
Society, shall also report the occasional services he may have performed.
In those cases in which — no State Convention existing — ^the General Con-
vention shall exercise the jurisdiction and powers of a State Convention, the
said reports of Pastors and Secretaries shall be sent directly to i^e Permanent
Secretary of the General Convention."

This Convention was incorporated March 9, 1866. It is
empowered to hold property, real and personal to the amount of
Five Hundred Thousand Dollars, "to be devoted exclusively to
the diffusion of Christian knowledge, by means of Missionaries,
Publications and other agencies." Its purpose is to make the
Universalist Denomination felt among the working religious
forces of the age. To this end, it resolved at Middletown, Ct.,
in 1865, and re-resolved at Baltimore, in 1867, to raise One
jflundred Thousand Dollars; and when this sum is realized, it
will keep on calling every year for still further means to educate
ministers, to plant and aid Societies, to build Churches, and in
every possible way to promote the conversion of souls, and the
triumph of the Redeemer. Opportunities are abundant and
pressing. The one want is Money ; and the appeal is to every
Universalist Society, Minister, and believer in the country for
a generous response and co-operation. The rules of the Con-
vention ordain that every Church or Society in its fellowship
shall cause One Collection to be taken Each Year in aid of its
funds. But this is for the incidental expenses of the Conven-
tion. For its general missionary work,- more than this is
needed : bequests and annual subscriptions, or donations, from
€very Universalist in the country, according to his or her ability.
Contributions solicited. Address Rev. E. G. Brooks, D. D.,
General Secretary.

SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES.
Bat few changes are to be noted in our Literary Institutions,
since our last issue. The year has been one of uninterrupted
prosperity to them all ; and they have been steadily gaining
in funds, efficiency and in the confidence of the community.
CLINTON LIBERAL INSTITUTE.
This is a first class Academy or High School, under the direc-
tion of the Regents of the University of the State of New York,
founded in 1832; and the large stone edifice for the Male
Department was erected that year in the northern part of the
village of Clinton. The beautiful and commodious edifice for
the Female Department was erected a number of years there-
after, in the southern part of the village, about half a mile from
the Male Department, overlooking the Oriskam valley and
fronting Hamilton College, on its opposite slope.
The School is now in a most prosperous and flourishing con-
dition. The instruction is thorough, the discipline mild and
parental, but firm ; and a healthy moral and social influence
pervades the School and boarding departments* Whole number

GREEN MOUNTAIN CENTRAL INSTITUTE.
This institution was incorporated in 1864, and located in
Barre, Vt, in 1865. It has a permanent fund of $30,000, and
a building fund of $22,000. The foundations of a suitable
building are laid, and some progress is made in its erection.
The structure is to be of brick, 150 feet by 40, with a front
projection of 10 feet, and it will be five stories high. It is to
contain a boarding department, and will accommodate 112
pupils. The cost is estimated at $35,000, and $15,000 are
therefore needed for its completion. The prospect is consid-
ered good. The work is rapidly progressing, and the hope is
expressed that the school will go into operation another season.

BIOGRAPHICAL RECORD.
REV. D. C. O'DANIELS.
ReT. D. C. O' Daniels died in Westminister, Massachusetts,
February 5th, in the thirty-ninth year of his age. Of his early
history, we have no information, other than that he was reared
in another faith than that which he spent his mature life in pro-
mulgating. His first settlement was in the town where he

departed tbie life. After that he went to Athol ; and then to
the State of New York, where he ministered to various socie-
ties, feeble health sadlj interfering with his plans of usefulness.
He was a very honest man, and never knew an opipion to
conceal it, and perhaps, he was sometimes too ready, for his
own interests, to avow convictions at variance with those of his
brethren. His heart was in sympathy with every movement
which tended to the amelioration of human suffering and woe ;
and both the temperance cause and that of anti-slavery early
found in him a devoted advocate. In consequence of ill health
he was for several years partially incapacitated for the full,
active duties of a pastor's life ; and accordingly, he had devoted
a part of his time to the work of a canvassing agent for the
" Ladies* Repontory** While thus engaged he visited West-
minister. His last sermon was preached in the pulpit there ;
his theme was Immortality ; and those who heard him felt, as
they beheld the feebleness of the speaker, that the subject
gained renewed importance, as presented by one so near the
confines of the world, to which he endeavored to lead their
thoughts.
Mr. O'Daniels left a wife and three little children, to mourn
the loss of a devoted husband and indulgent father. For their
sake he desired to live, but he knew in whom he had trusted,
and he was able to resign them and all he held dear, into the
hands of the everlasting Father.
REV. SEBASTIAN STREETER.
Rev. Sebastian Streeter passed to the heavenly rest June 2d.
Mr. Streeter was a native of North Adams, Massachubetts, and
the date of bis birth is April 15, 1783. While yet in his infancy
bis parents removed to Richmond, New Hampshire, and after-
wards to Swanzey, in the same State. His early advantages
were limited ; but by great industry and persistence he was
Digitized

76 UNIVERSALIST REGISTER
able to lay the foundation of a good professional edacatioo.
Quite early in life he was a successful teacher of commoD
schools, at which tine he was also an outspoken advocate of the
doctrine of Universal Salvation. His first sermon was preached
at the age of twenty-two : and he continued to preach from
time to time, though designing to enter the profession of the
Law. Accepting an invitation from (he wilds of Mame, he
c^nt a year in travelling from place to place en horseback,
frequently going sixty or seventy miles to preacih a single
lecture. At that time opposition to the doctrine was very
bitter ; and he> was often assailed by dogs which the owners set
upon him as he passed ; and in one instance, he was stoned by
a member of a Christian Church, while preaching in a Christian
house of worship.
In 1807, Mr. Streeter settled in Weare, New Hampshire, and
divided his time between that place and Hopkinton. He was
ordained at the General Convention, in Washington, New
Hampshire, September 21, 1808. From Weare, after a ministry
of four years, he removed to Haverhill, Massachusetts, remain-
ing there till called to the pastorate of the society in Forts-
mouth, New Hampshire. In 1824, he removed to Boston,
and took charge of the First Universalist Church in Han-
over Street, where he was installed on the 13th of May,
retaining the pastorship till about six years before his death,
when he retired from all public labors. He was a great sufferer
for many years, but he now sleeps in peace.
Father Streeter was a man of many gifts. His eloquence
was real and spontaneous, lifting his hearers into the heavenly
places, and making the spiritual world a reality to them. His
manner was easy and full of action. No man was more gifted
in prayer. Few ministers were so frequently called to attend
funerals, and few were so happy in speaking consolation to the
bereaved. He was at home in the Conference meeting, and
had the peculiar faculty of drawing out the timid, to utter their
Digitized

AND ALMANAC FOR 1868. 77
feelings in the Conference room. He was philanthropic, giving
with a generous hand, and carrying tokens of sympathy and
words of encouragement to the homes of the poor. He married
more couples than any other man in the land ; and his cheerful
laugh in seasons of joy made him always a favorite in the social
circle.
Mr. Streeter contributed much to the literature of the denom-
ination, as we find it twenty-five and thirty years ago. He
was associate editor of two periodicals. Many articles of his
authorship may be found in the volumes of the old Expositor; and
his Dame was associated with that of his brother, Rev. Russell
Streeter, in issuing a collection of Hymns, which for a long
time were in general use in our churches.
The aged companion of Father Streeter, with whom he lived
most happily for over sixty years, still survives him ; and several
children remain to bless the memory of an honored father.
REV. JOHN NICHOLS.
Rev. John Nichols died in Beverly, Massachusetts, February
24th. Mr. Nichols was a native of Cohasset, Massachusetts,
where be was born April 10, 1808. His studies with a view to
the ministry were pursued with the late Rev. A. A. Folsom, in
Hingbam, where he was ordained. After engagements with
the societies in Newton, Watertown and Quincy, he was settled
in Claremont, New Hampshire, where his ministry of four
years is -remembered with much interest. He afterwards
ministered to the Second Society in Lynn and the Society in
Holliston nine years, in South Framingham one year, and in
Beverly ten years. During his ministry in Holliston, he repre-
sented the town in the Legislature of 1848 and 1849.
Mr. Nichols was one of the most faithful of our ministers.
The purity of his life, his deep sincerity, his consecration to the
work to which he had been ordained, and his love of the gospel,

always secured the confidence and esteem of the people among
whom he resided. In everj settlement he did good ; and the
influence of his life and labors made not onlj the minister, but
the cause he advocated, respected. He was in deep, working,
sacrificing sjmpathj with every moral reform. Ilia sermons
always contained solid thought, and his delivery of them was
not infrequently truly eloquent In every community in which
be had lived, he won the affections of all who knew him ; and
at his funeral all classes united in bearing testimony to his
worth as a citizen and as a minister of Christ
The circumstances attending the death of this excellent
minister were peculiarly affecting. He was about to close his
ministry in Beverly, and the Sunday of his valedictory had
arrived. In the morning he met the Sunday School, and
addressed the scholars in a tender and affectionate manner, and
apparently in his usual health. In the afternoon he preached
his farewell sermon. No appearance of illness was noticed
during the preliminary services. In commencing his discourse,
he omitted to tell as usual, where his text was to be found.
The first and second divisions of it were treated with his usual
clearness ; but when he entered upon the closing division, he
wandered and was incoherent At the close, he failed to read a
notice he held in his hand and attempted to give. Friends
conducted him to his home, and a physician was called. Be-
coming utterly unconscious, he expired about eleven o'clock.
His physician pronounced it a case of paralysis of the brain ;
and it had evidently been induced by the excitement attending
the closing of his labors with the parish, which had occurred
much against his own feelings and wishes. His farewell sermon
was thus his farewell to earthly scenes I
REV. ROBERT L. EILLAM.

Massachusetts, where he was horn, June 29th, 1790, he hecame
a convert bj reading the writings of Rev. H. Ballou. He was
settled in the mtniatrj, first in Marlhoroagh, from 1819 to 1821 ;
then in Attleborough, from 1821 to 1829 ; and he was pastor
of the society in West Scitoate from 1829 to 1887. His
residence continued in the latter place, till the time of his death.
In consequence of bodily infirmities and a derangement of his
mental powers, he had been unable to preach for many years,
and his death occurred in a retreat for the insane. One who
had known him long and well, thus speaks of him : '' Whenever
he preached he fed the people with knowledge and understand-
ing. He was a Bible Christian, treating his subjects in a
common-sense way. He was an earnest man, and early saw
and illustrated the duty of applying the gospel to all the affairs
of life. He therefore joined the advancing hosts in the grave
questions which have convulsed the land, his countenance aglow
with youthful fire, when he argued the equal rights of man. As
a man he was genial and upright A good citizen, a tender
husband and father, he was much respected where he was well
known. * * * He was a good ex-minister. He did not turn
his back upon the pulpit from which he had retired, nor fail to
cooperate with his parish when they had obtained a succes-
sor. * * * He has left two sons, (his wife and only daughter
having been sent forward long ago to welcome him home,) who
remain on the old homestead, and honor the name and faith of
their father, at the altar where he so long ministered and wor-
shipped."
RfiV. GEORGE E. ALLEN.
Rev. Greorge E. Allen departed this life, at his late residence
in Scitico, Connecticut, February 2drd, at the age of forty-two,
after a painful illness of nine weeks. But few data have been
furnished, out of which to form even a brief sketch of his life ;

jet those who knew him uniformlj testify to the rare excellence
of his character as a Christian minister. He was born and
passed his life in the commanitj where he breathed his last
For eleven years he was pastor of the Charch in Poquonnock,
and he had performed much missionary work in the State. He
was always an acceptable preacher; always welcome at'
Associations, and always Standing Clerk of some of those
bodies. His gentleness, kindness, good-neigh-borship, modesty
and worth commanded the respect and esteem of a very wide
circle of acquaintances. In many homes he had administered
the consolations of religion to the bereaved, and he will be
greatly missed by very many to whom, in various places, he had
declared the unsearchable riches of Christ He had been a
laborer in the ministry for fifteen years, and was greatly beloved
by both ministers and laymen. He died as he lived and
preached, in his last words breathing the joy and peace our
faith affords, and adding another to the long list of those who
have victoriously met death through its heavenly power. A
widow, two children and an aged mother mourn the departure of
a devoted husband, indulgent father and dutiful son.
REV. ELHANAN WINCHESTER REYNOLDS.
Rev. Elhanan Winchester Reynolds died in Milwaukie,
Wisconsin, August 31, aged thirty-nine years. For three
years past, his health had been very precarious, and for some
months he had declined rapidly. His difficulty was consump-
tion superinduced by asthma, a disease from which he was
always more or less a sufferer. He entered the ministry twenty
years ago, at the age of nineteen, a young man of evident parts,
but at that time with no very happy faculty of commending
himself to the public He was first settled in Java, Erie
County, New York. Subsequently in Sherman, New York ; in

Norwich, Oonnecticvt ; Lynn, Massachusetts ; Buffalo, James-
town, Watertown and Lockport, New York. From the latter
place he returned j after a brief pastorate, to. his farm in Cuba,
New York, a prematurely exhausted and dying man. Here
he endeavored to establish a society, when so weak that, as he
said, he was "fighting with death daily." His feat failing
health admonished him that he must seek relief, if it were to be
found at all, in the restoring climate of Minnesota, whither he
went a few months since. But the disease appeared to have
been too deeply seated ; its progress was sure and steady ; and
he now sleeps in peace. He had no fear of death. His faith
was never firmer than amid the gathering shadows of his last
days. His trust in God was serene and strong. As one who
falls into a gentle sleep, he passed away, the act seeming not
^ So much even as the lifting of a latch ;
Only a step into the open air
Oat of a tent already laminons
With light that shone through its transparent walls."
Rev. E. W. Reynolds had developed from an awkward and
rather unpromising youth of nineteen to a man of thirty-nine,
of as many and rare accomplishments as we often meet in any
one, reared under whatever advantages. As a preacher, he was
strong and often brilliant ; as a scholar, his explorations were
extensive, and his acquisitions, the gold refined from innume-
rable heaps of dross, patiently searched out ; and as a writer,
he was master of a style which would have been his passport to
the first literary circles of America. He wrote several books,
the most successful of which is the Records of Bubbleton
Parish, a volume of great power and lively humor. He has
left an honorable record, which cannot but be helpful to all who
give it an appreciative consideration. The denomination has
met with a great loss in his death. It is a sad thing for a great
cause to lose such a man, when cultivated mipds and consecrated
hearts lure so necessary to it,

REV. W. B. LTNELL.
Rev. W. B. Linell of Muncie, Indiana, died in Indianapolis,
September 6th. Leaving home to attend the State Conyentioa
in Terra Haute, he was taken sick of typhoid fever, in Indiana-
polis, and was unable to reach his place of distination. He lay
in a stupor, for several days, at the house of a friend, from
which he never awoke, till his eyes beheld the beatific world.
But few incidents have come to us of the life of this departed
brother. He was bom in Birmingham, England, in the year
1804, and moved to this country in the year 1825. Was mar-
ried March 5th, 1830, to Celesta Stoddard in Stowe, Vermont.
Commenced his labors in the ministry in the year 1842. Made
his first settlement in Springboro, Ohio, in 1844, and continued
to live and labor there successfully for the space of seven years.
Went from Springboro to Oquawka, and remained one year.
Lefl Oquawka for Fairfield, Indiana, where he labored two
years. Went from Fairfield back to Oquawka and remained
two years. Went from there to Mount Pleasant, Iowa — ^lived
there one year and returned to Oquawka and continued bis <
labors until the breaking out of the war. He then enlisted in
the service of his — ^not the less loved because adopted country
'-'-^as chaplain of the 10th Illinois Regiment Health failed
him, and he returned io his home afler enduring the hardships
of camp life for nearly a year. Af^er recovering his health he
took charge of the church in Vevay, Indiana, in 1864, where he
remained one year, during which time his wife, afler a long
protracted illness, died. Leaving Vevay, he next settled in
Muncie, Indiana, where he was married to Mrs. Jane 0 barman,
who survives him.
He was always remarkable for his robust health and bodily
vigor, and few but would have judged him to be less that fifty.

One of the pioneers of our faith in the West, he had done good
service for his Master, in the places where he had preached.
Having much of the Missionary spirit, his appointments were
always numerous, and they were made many weeks ahead. As
a preacher, though not particularly hrilliant, he was always
efficient ; and bis public life was eminently useful.
Mr. Linell inherited the traditional shrewdness and humor of
the Yorkshire people, among whom he was bom, in such a
degree as to make him a marked character among our ministers.
He was a pleasant companion, on whom care sat lightly, and
with his merry laugh and ready fund of anecdote, made himself
a general favorite in the social circle. He was frank and open
in his manners, and kind and tender-hearted to a fault. Yet
his will was unbending, aud when his mind was once made up
it was difficult to change him.
JOSHUA SMITHSON.
Joshua Smithson died in Vevay, Indiana, June 24, 1867, in
the seventy-fifth year of his age. He was bom in Randolph
CJounty, North Carolina, in A. D. 1792 ; removed to Hillbboro,
Ohio, when he was nine years old; in 1816, was nuirried to
Sarah Goddard at Flemingsburg, Kentucky, and came to
Vevay the same year, and lived here and in this vicinity a
period of fiftj^-one years. Father Smithson was at one time a
member of the Methodist Church, and afterwards a member of
the Christian Church, but never found rest to his soul, until he
was brought to believe in God as the Father and Savior of all,
especially of those that believe. In 1852, when the Univer"
salist Church was organized in Vevay, he was among the first
to unite with it, and remained a firm believer, and died full of
faith. He was greatly esteemed by the membership of the
Church, and was one of the Trustees at his death. He took
an interest in its welfare, and always bore evidence of the good

effecU of ito doctrines upon his own life. By hard labor and a
judicious economy, he and his faithful companion, acquired more
than enough of this world's goods to sustain them In their old
age ; and by his will, he has provided that their surplus shall
be so invested, as to cause those who remain behind, to revere
his memory ; and that his good deeds shall *^ follow him." His
will provides — 1. That all his property goes to his wife. 2. At
her death, on&4hird goes to the Universaiist Church at Vevay,
the interest of the same to be expended for the support of
preaching. 8. The remaining two-thirds goes to the North-
western Conference, for the purpose of building a Denomina-
tional School in Indiana.
REV. SETH STETSON.
Rev. Seth Stetson died in Brunswick, Maine, July 12th.
Father Stetson, as he was affectionately called by all who knew
him, was bom in Kingston, Massachusetts, July 17, 1776, and
consequently, at the time of his death, wanted but a few days
of being ninty-one years old. He was reared in the faith of the
Puritan fathers, near the old Plymouth Rock. In early life he
learned the trade of a ship-carpenter, at which he wrought for
several years. Emigrating to the then Province of Maine, he •
felt called to enter the Congregational ministry. He pursued
his studies with settled ministers of the order, teaching school
during the time, to pay his way. His first settlement was in
Norridgewock, Maine, where he labored three years, when be
returned to the Old Colony, settled in the Manumet Pond
parish, in Plymouth, continuing his pastorate there seventeen
years. When the Unitarian controversy broke out in Massa-
chusetts, he became interested; and, reading with care the
arguments of the late Rev. Noah Worcester, D.D., he became
a convert to Unitarianism. For a time he was employed as a
Unitarian missionary in Maine. In 1829, he made a further
advance in his faith, becoming a happy believer in the salvation

of a world throagh Chnsi, m which hope he continued till the
daj of his death. In that jear he fulfilled a temporary engage*
ment with the societj in Charlestown, Massachusetts, and thence
removed to Salem, where he preached three years. In 1828,
he returned to Maine. His engagements there were with the
sociedea in Brunswick, Bath, Bowdoinham, Buckfield, Durham^
and Bristol. In 1835, he purchased the house in Brunswick,
in which his last years were most happily spent
No Universalist ever more truly enfoyed his religion, than
did Father Stetson. From the hour of his conversion, he
never had one feeling of distrust in the love of the Father. He
lived in the conscious presence of the Everlasting One, and he
felt the smiles of His love resting upon him. His heart went
out to all men, and every body loved him in retnrn. Wherever
he went he carried the spirit of Christ, and his presence was
fdways felt to be a benediction, in the hundreds of homes in
Maine, ta which he was ever joyfully welcomed. No man ever
lived nearer to the requirements of the Gospel, and in none was
the spirit of Christ more visibly manifest That ''he was a
good man and full of the Holy Ghost,'' was the testimony of all
who knew him.
Father Stetson died as he had lived. Serenely he passed
down into the dark valley, which was all light to him, falling
asleep without a struggle. An aged companion, with whom he
had journeyed sixty-six years of his life ; a most devoted
daughter, who tenderly cared for him in his decline, and two
sons, mourn his departure.

MISCELLANEOUS,
TIGHT BOOTS IN THE GREAT PLAN.
Brigadier Thompson, as he was generally called, was a
Winchesterian Universalist, residing many years ago, in Tops-
ham, Maine. He was a man of great ability, and, notwith-
standing his heresy, he exerted a wide influence in the town
and vicinity. His aged Orthodox acquaintances, still living,
tell how he believed in the punishment of the wicked, in literal
fire and brimstone, for fifty thousand years. One of his tavorite
sayings was, that '* Every thing is right, in the great pkn."
But he found it hard always to repose in the belief. For
instance, he had been elected Representative to the General
Court, and had, among his many preparations, engaged a pair
of new boots, to be finished and brought him on Saturday night,
before starting on the then long journey to Boston. At a bite
hour the boots came ; but on trying them thej proved too
small for the Brigadier's manly feet. Fulling and tugging for
a long time, he finally gave up in despair, and expressed his
disappointment in no very gentle terms. '* He must start for
General Court on Monday ; it was now Saturday night, and he
had no boots I" The shoemaker, thinking to soothe his irritabil-
ity, finally exclaimed, ''Well, Brigadier, it is all right, in the

specalations to actual circumstances. The little annoyances
still trouble us, though we believe them all right, in the great
whole.
A PERSONAL PRONOUN DEVIL.

with Universalism, attended a protracted meeting, became a
convert, and- offered himself for Church membership. At the
preliminary examination as to his experience and creed, he was
asked if he believed in a DeviL He replied in the affirmative.
Fearing that there might be still some tincture of the Universal-
ist leaven about him^ the examining minister further inquired
if he believed in a Personal Devil. The reply was again in the
affirmative. - But still fearing there might be some mental
reservation, and to make the examination sufficiently searching,
the question was put, if he believed in a Personal Pronoun
DeviL The candidate said he did, and was accepted without
further questioning. His Orthodoxy could not be longer doubted.
CUMULATIVE ARGUMENT.
An Ignorant ranter, who, because Balaam's beast spoke,
thought it the privilege of every animal of the same kind to
become a preacher, once gave the following reasons for not
believing in the doctrine of Universal Salvation :
L Because the doctrine is unscripturaL
II. Because it is anti-scriptural.
III. Because it is contrary to scripture.
lY. And, finally, because it is unfounded.

MINISTERS' SALARIES.
Honorable Amasa Walker, a political economist of consid-
erable celebrity, has, within the last few months, made extetimve
inquiries respecting the salaries of ministers since the depreda-
tion of the currency, and the corresponding high price of living.
Of the salaries of one thousand ministers, in eight different
denominations, more than three-fourths fall below $1000, a large
number ranging from $350 to $700. His conclusions are as
follows, to be commended to the consideration of those who
wish well to the interests of Christianity :—<« First^Tbat
salaries of clergymen have not been increased in proportion to
the greater cost of commodities, the latter having advanced at
least one hundred per cent. Second — That salaries have not
been increased as much as the wages of labor in general,
because the latter advanced fifty per cent between 1860 and
1865, as ascertained from various sources. Third — ^That
salaries were not enhanced so much as the profits of trade and
manufiustures, which, between 1860 and 1865, are known to
have increased some one hundred per cent-— that is, they were
about doubled in amount Fourth — As a conclusion, that the
clergy, as a body, must have made a greater sacrifice of
pecuniary interest than anj principal class of the community.**
" THE ZOARITES.'*
This title is the designation of a community of Separatists
from the Grei^nan Lutheran Church, in Wurtembni^. Their
origin dates with the beginning of the century. Having elec^edy

for their leader, a young man of rare ability and promise, by the
name of Joseph M. Beimler, they emigrated to Ohio, in 1819,
taking up a tract of seven thousand acres of excellent land, on
the banks of the Tuscarawas ; and by industry, temperance and
frugality they have become a comparatively wealthy people.
Their last assessment was over $1,500,000. Their pi-operty
is held in common. Its management is committed to trustees,
who are directly accountable to the community for the proper
discharge of their duties. The women vote, at the elections,
equally with the men. The Zoarites manufacture nearly every
thing they use ; wear nothing but home fabrics ; eat nothing
bat home products ; are temperate in all things ; use no tobftcco ;
reject pork as an article of food ; treat their women as equals ;
allow no profanity or other vulgarity ; and are scrupulously neat
and clean in all things. The substance of theis religion may
be said to consist in good morals and cleanliness. They have
no creed; are opposed to outward forms and rites; worship

They are a plain, practical, common sense people, from whom
others might obtain lessons worthy to be learned, in religion,
morals and industrial economy.

PREFACE.
Wk present again to the Universalist denomination its Ak-
KUAL Bbgisteb. It is far from perfect It is not possible to
get aU the desired statbtics, or to avoid evety error. We have
done the best we could, hoping that it will prove, on the whole,
satisfactory to those for whose benefit it is intended.
The statistics for our Centennial year shotdd be fiir more
complete. They may be made so, with the willing co-operation
of all our ministers. Our clergymen can help us, if they will.
They can notify us of the errors they find in the present issue.
They can supply its omissions. And ihey can, at least, reply
to letters of inquiry for information. Let each minister and
layman consider himself a special committee of one, to furnish
the information within his reach, for the Annual Bboistsb
of 1870.
Oar Biographical Record for the past year is a long and sad
one. The faithful laborers are passing away. Are we who
yet remain equally faithful ? Like them may we fight the good
fight^ keep the faith, and win the crown.

This Convention was incorporated March 9, 1866. It is em-
powered to hold property, real and personal, to the amount of
JKve Hundred Thousand DoUartj '^ to be devoted exclusively to
the diffusion of Christian knowledge, by means of Missionaries,
Publications and other agencies.** Its purpose is to make the
Universalist Denomination felt among the working religious
forces of the age. To this end, it calls for means to educate
ministers, to plant and aid Societies, to build Churches, and in
every possible way to promote the conversion of souls, and the
triumph of the Bedeemer. Opportunities are abundant and
pressing. The one want is Money ; and the appeal is to every
Universalist Society, Minister, and believer in the country for a
generous response and co-operation. The rules of the Conven-
tion (Mrdain that every Church, Society, or Sunday School in its
fellowship shall contribute each year in aid of its funds. Im-
perative needs demand a compliance with this Bule, and call
for bequests and annual subscriptions, or donations, from cTcry
Universalist in the country, according to his or her ability.
Contributions solicited. Address Bev. £. 6. Brooks, D.D.,

BIOGRAPHICAL RECORD.
ELAM PORTER, ESQ.
Elam Porter was among the killed at the frightfal '< Angola
disastery** December 18, 1867. Bom in Hartfoid, Vt:, April 27,
1837, and gradiiated at Tufts College, he had been a saccessfiil
teacher in Soutb Beading, Mass. While there he pursued the
study of law, under J. P. Healj of Boston, and was admitted
to the Bar. Removing to Ohio, he had settled in Cincinnati,
and was rapidlj gaining a lucrative practice, winning meanwhile
the love and respect of all with whom he had become associated.
A UniTersalist from thorough conviction, he was ever able and
ready to give reasons for the faith he cherished. Wherever he
was, he identified himself with our cause. In South Reading
he was the Supierintendent of the Sunday School. In Cinctn*
nati he was a member of the Bible Class, in connection with
the First Church. He felt and said, that no more promising
opportunities for Christian labor were to be found, than in the
the Sunday School. Few men have given greater promise of
asefulDeas in the Church and in the world, and few so gifted in
mind and heart
At the time of the accident by which this noble young bmd
met hia death, he w&4 on his way to visit his invalid mother in
Yermoot, and there to meet his affianced, to whom be was to be
united on Christmas day. The cars were thrown down the
steep embankment, and the devouring element enveloped the
ruins. Only a bunch of keys, with Mr. Porter's name and resi*
dence on the ring tliat bound them, was lefl to tell the tak«
His body, with many others, could not be identified.

MRS. HELEN L. (GILSON) OSGOOD.
Mrs. Osgood died in Boston, in April last. A few years
before the breaking out of the Rebellion she became interested
in our religious viewa through the preaching of Rev. C. H.
Leonard, of Chelsea, who afterwards became her pastor, and to
whom her attachment was peculiarly strong. The light and
hope that came to her, the strength and peaqe that entered into
her life through the faith. which he was God's instrument in
bringing to her, filled her with such gratitude as only a aoul
bom out of darkness into light, can feel or express. She con-
nected herself with Mr. Leonard's church, and passed her few
years of life ai a Universalist, in an enthusiasm for her new
faith as beautiful as i^was constant. No one acquainted with
her daring this period could doubt, if he were inclined to before,

religioas narure the highest as well as the purest Kfyiritaal j/oj*
From that time her whole heart jeamed to do good. Her
pra}'er was that she might exemplify her religion, *K)or strong
and beautiful Faith," as she alwajs called it, not onlj in anno*
ticed wajs in the dailj life, but in some special serrice for God
and humanity. How well that prajer was answered all, who
have heard the storj of her labors in the hospitaK know foil
well. When the fintt note of war sounded, and the first erj
came from the field and the hospital, slie said : ^ 1 most go.
Pray that the way may be opened for me." Crod did o|ien the
way. He led his earnest and faithful diild. From the begin-
ning to the em! of the war she labored incessantlT ; and was at
or near every battle in which the Army of the Potomac was
engaged, except the firot battle of Bull-Kon. The good sliedtd
is really above the comprehension of thoAc who were not cogni-
xant of her nsovements in the Army. In tiie field amid the
carnage ; in the streets of the de:(erted town where the wounded
were scattered ; and in the ho(pita] where the sick and dying
sighed for relief, and longed for home and rest, she was an angel
of mercy. One of the last things she did in the Army was to
organize a hoi^pital for colored soldiers. It was an extraordi-
nary ta^k. Experienced sui^geona ^aid, no man could do tins ;
and all her friends tried to dissuade her from the undertaking.
But the more she heard of the sofl^irings and death among the
colored troops that were huddled together at City Point, the
stronger was her desire to go and help ihem. She said : ** I
cannot die in a cause more sacred," and started out alone. In
a little while she organized a kitchen upon her method of 8pedal
diet, arranged the wards, taught the nurses, and reduced all
things to system and order. **The entire m^pagement was
like the ticking of a clock — regular discipline, gentle firmness,
and sweet temper always." At one time there were nine hun-
dred men in the hospital, and she knew every patient and his
special need. If she had done no other work, this were enoogb

REV. J. D. HICKS.
Rev. J. D. Hicks died at St. Johnsville, N. Y., March 1st,
aged 72. He was one of (he best and most beloved of men.
Bam in Warren, Herkimer County, N. Y., there he resided a
number of years. There he became an exhorter in the Meth-
odist Episcopal Church. At length tlie light of our great faith
dawned on his mind, and he became its advocate, able to give a
good and logical reas>on for his hope.
Years ago he purchased a quiet and pleasant home in the
same county, and near the village of St. Johnsville, in which he
ever after rebided. He mmistered in a large number of com-
munities. Sometimes he was engaged to preach at a given
place one Sunday; then again, for several Sundays, or for
years. Fordsbush, Brookman's Comers, Salisbury, St. Johns*
ville, Argus ville, Newville, Eaton ville and other places, enjoyed
his protracted labors. He was ever the sensible, eamest, accep-
table preacher, particularly gifted and sympathetic at funerals,
speaking always without notes. If, on any occasion, an associ-
ated preacher was unprepared, Br. Hirks could be relied upon.
For his services he accepted whatever the friends might think
fit to bestow, and his income was consequently small.
It was a great pleasure for him to attend the Associations
and other general meetings of the denomination. Of late, the
weight of years, and more still, disease, prevented him from going
much from home. Repeated shocks of paralysis took this con-
sistent minister, excellent neighbor, humble, meek, cheerful,
unselfish man from his wife and son, from the host of noble,
admiring' friends, from the scenes of earthly labor and safiering^
to the Redeemer's rest in heaven.

REV. M. B. NEWELL.
Rev. Haxcj B. Newell died in We8t Brattleboro, Yennont,
January 24tb, aged 60. Mr. Newell was a native of Belling-
ham, Massachutfetts. ** He ^pent two yean in I^nox Academj,
Massachuflette, in 1823-4. He began studying for the Univei^
•alisi ministry^ with Rev. Dr. L D. Williamson, in Albany, New
York, in 1833. He continued his preparation for the pulpit
under the direction of Rev. Stephen R. Smitli, and finished it
at the Clinton Liberal Institute, Clinton, New York, in 1835.
He preached his first sermon, September 14, 1834, at Duansburg»
New York. His first settlement was in Amsterdam, New York,
and continued from 1836 to 1839. He was sijbsequently set-
tled in Phillipston, Massachusetts, preaching part of the lime in
Shutesbury and in neighboring towns ; in Annissquam, Masst-
chusetts, from 1842 to 1844, in Brewster, Massachusetts, from
1846 to 1848. In 1849 he removed to West Rumiiey, New
Hampshire, preaching there and in the vicinity for two years.
He preached a few months in Dover, Maine, in 1851. In 1852,
he went South, and preached for shorter or longer periods io
Reading, Pennsylvania, Baltimore, Maryland, Norfolk, Rich-
mond, Lynchburg and Belle Haven, Virginia, and Charleston,
South Carolina. In 1853 he was in Ferry, New York, whence
be moved to West Haverhill, Massachusetts. In 1854 he went
South again and preached in Florida, and in Burnt Com, Ala-
bama ; some time at the latter plaoe. He settled at Westmore-
land, New Hampshire, in 1850, and preached there and in Paper
Mill Village for two years. His first settlement in Vermont
was in Guilford Centre, about ten years ago, when he supplied
half of the time in West Brattleboro'. He has since preached

deDomination, in 1864 he bought a fiirm in Brattleboro*, the
p]t»santest region, in his riew, he had ever se<en, where he hoped
to 8pend the remainder of his life with his children in a quiet
home. But in (hifl he was disappointed. He was inexperi-
enced in farming, and, therefore, did not pursue it proflfablj.
Its labors too severely taxed his strength. At a period of life
when he needed repose, he was summoned hy his business to
increased activity. He was over-worked, and his health failed.
Two weeks before his decease he was operated upon surgically
for a species of dropsy. In this condition of bodily infirmity
he was seized with the idea that his property was slipping away
from him, and though possessed of a competence enough for the
support of himself and family without labor, he imagined that
he was about to become a town* dependent His apprehended
difficulties robbed him of sleep, and for two weeks before his
death he was without this sedative of nature. The result was,
his reason reeled, his judgment was dethroned, and he turned
his hand upon his own life.**
Mr. Newell was a man of many prominent virtues. His in-
tegrity was incorruptible. '^ He had an imperturbable tem-
per. No provocation angered him. He was always cheerful;
humorous, quick at repartee, and therefore companionable. He
was free from low envy. ' There was no malice in his heart ;
he hated none, cherL^hed no ill will towards any. Others*
success did not disturb him ; he did nothing to detract from the
good estimation in which they were held. He was charitable in
his judgment of others. While in the ministry he was the friend
of all his clerical brethren. He was a lover of peace. No
word of act of his encouraged discord or faction. He was
kindly disposed towards all." He was twice married, and twice
berefl of a companion. Two children remain to mourn his sad
departure.

Norman Van Nostrand, Ei^q^ died in Ridgewood, Long

REV. JESSIE WHITAKER.
Bev. Jessie Whitaker died in Weare, New Hampshire, March
81st, aged 84 years. Early in life he became a Free Will
Baptidt, in the ministry of which he was ordained in 1829.
Organizing a Church of that faith in Weare, he continued its
pastor for ten years. A prayerful study of the Bible led to the
enlargement of his faith, and to his preaching a better doctrine
than that of his church. Reported unsound, he was suspended
from the ministry. He then began to read Universalist 'books,
and he soon came to a full conviction of the truth of the doctrines
they taught.

often at the marriage altar, and spoke words of comfort in cases
of brea veroent. Greatly respected in the place of his residence,
he was often elected to offices of trust, bj the votes of his
fellow townsmen. He was a true friend of humanity, and kept
pace with the most advanced sentiment of the country.
Mr. Whi taker had few early advantages, but by constant
study and prayer he attained to an excellence and efficiency
which many men with the most liberal opportunities might envy.
He did not look at the truth at a distance, as many do ; it
touched with a potent influence every faculty, and made every
moral and religious influence fruitful.
For the last two years he suffered greatly, hb reason some*
times wavering. But his constant prayer was for resignatk>n,
and for strength and support till his time should come. Such
strength of faith, such nearness to the Father, and such prayer-

end of his journey. In his life and death he has left a noble
Christian example.

Other paper:* were contiolidated with it, under the name of the
" Dniversalist Union/* But though the list of subscribers was
large, the revulsion of 1837 swamped Mr. Price financially, and
the '* Union " passed from hi.4 hands, first bj as^signment, and
then by sale. Though Mr. Price's public connection with the
cause of Universalism then ceased, he continued steadfast to its
interest, and at various times he was Trustee of the Church in
Williamsburg, New York.
For two or three years before his death he was a great suffer-
er, as well as a great care to his family. He sank gradually
under a paralysis, till, at an unusual age, he came ifo thait second
childhood, which, in the case of those who have done so good a
work in life, seems so peculiarly sad. Thanks for the hope,
that, emancipated from the burdens of the flesh, the spirit has
resumed its activity in the better land.
REV. a S. HUSSEY.
Rev. C. S. Hussey died in Menasha, Wisconsin, May 13th,
aged 52. He was bom of Quaker pai'entage in Vassalboroagb,

matters, and set about a preparation for the Universalist minis-
try, studying first under the direction of Rev. J. B. Dods, and
afterwards successively with Revs. S. Cobb and F. A. Hodsdon.
He was licensed by the New Hampshire Convention, in Jane,

Menasha, Wis. His health began to fail in the fall of 1867.
A new church had been built in Menasha, which was dedicated
March 24th. At the dedication, his installation as pastor of the
Society also occurred. He preached but two or three timet
aflerwards. His last service was at a communion season, and
the exercises were deeply impressive. He was then rapidly
nearing the heavenly shore, and more of his soul was visible to
his people, because of the feeling that he was probably uttering
his last thoughts in their hearing.
^ Mr. Hussey was a man of deep and fervent piety. He
aimed to make his daily life the fullest exponent of his Chris-
tian character. His moral and religious integrity was of the
purest type. His Christian faith and zeal were of the apostolic
kind. He had no loose way of thinking and speaking of God,
Christ and the Bible. He had definite and stable convictions^
and stood fairly on the broad platform of Christianity. He was
gentlemanly in his bearing toward those of other denominations ;
was always glad to extend and to receive the genuine courtesies
of the Christian and ministerial profession. His nature was
deeply religious. He trusted in Grod as the loving Father of
all spirits, and joyfully hoped for the final deliverance of all
souls. The beautiful faith which he had so often commended
to others, was his own complete solace and support in the trying
hour. Not a doubt clouded the serenity of his soul as he went
dow.n into the valley of death. All was bright and joyful
beyond."
Calmly and trustfully he fell asleep, to awake in the more
perfect life of the Redeemer, in the immortal world.

cation iq its City Schools, where he graduated with honor.
Choding a life of hutsineds activity, he became widelj knowD as
one of the most successful of the Boston merchants. As his
means accumulated, he was not less favorably known for his
liberality and charity. His hands were always full of cares
where the interests of widows and orphans, and the administrt-
tion of funds appropriated to great moral, educational and phil-
anthropic ends, sought a trustee whose integrity, intelligence
and business capacity were entirely beyond question.
Mr. Goddard was not less distinguished for bis Christian life,
and hb fidelity to his religions convictions. Early connecting
himself with the School Street Church, for orer thirty years he
was the Superintendent of its Sunday School, dcrring all of
which period he was never late, much less absent but from the
most pressing necessity. For many years one of its Deacons,
he was equally faithful to that trust. He was one of the first
contributors to Tufts College ; and he became its Treasurer in
tlie days of its weakness. When the Academy at Westbrook,
Maine, wanted funds, he gave liberally. When it was proposed
to found a first-class academy at Barre, Vermont, he gave gen-
erously. When Canton Theological School called for aid, Lis
hand was open. He was the first to suggest and urge the
founding of a first-class Academy in Massachusetts, and Dr.
Dean nobly acted upon his suggestion. When the first call for
money for it came, he gave freely; and when the last call wu
made, he gave without stint. When the Publishing House was
projected, he gave it substantial encouragement. He seemed
never to tire in his endeavors to promote, with his means, the
interests of the religion in which he believed and rejoiced.
While giving so liberally, his benevolent heart was ever seek-
ing new opportunities for benefiting the cause he loved, and his
mind suggesting new methods by which its interests might be

REV. NATHANIEL STACY.
Rev. Nathaniel Stacy, the oldest minister in the denomina-
tion, died in Columbus, Pennsylvania, April 4th, aged 89 years.
A native of New Salem, Massachusetts, his early education was
such as the common school of that time afforded, though he sub-
sequently passed a few terms in the Academy, always making
great progress in proportion to time and advantages. In the
winter of 1799, while teaching school in Vermont and boarding
with a Baptist clergyman, his mind became much exercised on
religious subjects, which led him to a patient study of the Bible,
and in no long -time to a firm faith in the doctrine of Universal
Salvation. During the autumn of the same year he met and
heard Hosea Ballon, at Woodstock. AfUr serving short
apprenticeships as school-teacher, news-agent, clerk, and clock-
maker, he was induced by the persuasions of Mr. Ballou to begin-
a course of study under his direction with the view of entering
the Universalist ministry. This was in October, 1802 — and in
the day of smalfthings for our cause ; consequently Mr. Stacy's
advantages were far from good. But under the force of the
same persuasion that had prevailed on him to take up the study,
he was *' compelled " to preach his first sermon the following
month, in Dana, Massachusetts. In January, 1803, he went,
again to Vermont and preached during the winter in Moretown,
Bolton, Essex, Jericho and Montpelier. Subsequently he jour-

nejed to Connecticut and preached in sereral places in thai
State. He was present at the adoption of the ^Confession** in
Winchester, New Hampshire, in 1803. Passing the next two
jears in teaching school and itinerating in Massachusetts and
Vermont, he set out for the State of New York in 1805, hold-
mg meetings in Whitehall, Ganajoharie, and in manj places in
the counties of Otsego, Oneida and Madison, In January, 1806,
he removed to Brookfield, New York. After two jears he
fettled in Hamilton, Madison County, where his family contin-
ued to reside for twenty years, though he himself was constantlj
doing the work of an evangelist over nearly the whole length
and breadth of the great State of New York, making several
excursions meanwhile into adjoining States. In the Spring of
1830 he removed to Columbus, Pennsylvania, where he resided,
with the exception of a few comparatively brief intervals, up to
the time of hb death — among these, however, should be men-
tioned a ^ visit ** of five years at Ann Arbor, Michigan. In
December, 1848 he concluded his ^ Memoirs ** on which he had
been engaged for several years, stating that, up to that time, he
had preached more or less in ten different Statea, delivering
4,749 discourses ; had officiated at 368 funerals and solemnized
228 marriages. Since then his active ministry has ceased,
though he continued to labor as strength and opportunity afford-
ed, down almost to the close of his life.
• Father Stacy was one of the most indefatigable missionaries
we ever had ; and the history of his hibors for forty years is in
good part the history of Universalism in Nei^fork, Pennsyl-
vania and Michigan. He suffered many and great persecutioM
and privations in all that time— often of the most trying and
inexcusable kind — ^but his great amiability and beautiful trust
threw over them all a halo of triumph and glory. Troubled on
every side, he was seldom distressed ; often perplexed, he was
never in despair ; persecuted without stint and without mercji
he knew that he could not be forsaken. How cheerful was his

temper^ how kind his heart, how tranquil his philosophy and
how unfaltering his faith, all know who had the pleasure of hit
acquaintance. No man ever went down into the vale of yean
more at peace with all the world and more happy in the abund-
ance of his love and trust toward God, than Father Stacy. He
bved the cause for which he had- labored long and faithfully,
with all the ardor of youth in the extremity of age. Every
young ratni^ter was to him a new token that the Lord was blesa-
uig Zion ; and the patriarch's heart went out to him with cordial
fervor. He had no jealousies. He was not wont to harbor
suspicions. He was almost destitute of ambition, in the oommott
and worldly sense.
Nathaniel Stacy was not a great man, nor a man of much
learning ; but he was a man who performed a vast amount of
labor in the spirit of a pure and sincere Christian, and in so
thorough and acceptable a manner as to leave a blessed inflo*
ence not only on his own time, but on generations following*
His lust days were calm and tranquil. Peacefully he passed
away to the better land, leaving only pleasant memories to his
surviving friends. His aged widow still lingers, patiently waiU
ing to follow lum.

eighteen years of age, he was the subject of religious impres*
sions, and gave himself by personal consecration to the service
of his God. He became a Universalist in spirit as well as in

then the pa«tor at Watenrille. Ilia ordtoatioo, with that of
several others, occurred at the sessioo of the old Eastern Asm-
cialiooy held in Livermore, June, 1827. He aided in the
formation of the Maine UniTerBalist GonyentioD, in Lewiston,
in 1828.
His first settlement was in Beadfield. He preached awhile
in Dangers, Massachusetts. Leaving that place, after a hrief
ministry, he went to Gvoff»tO!nrn, New Hampshire, where he
paved the waj for the building of the two large Societies now
existing in the city of Manchester. He then returned to his
native place, purchased a small farm, built a house, and became
the pastor of the Society in Kenduskeag. Afterwards he
removed to Dexter, where his labors were crowned with signal
success. Great intJBrest was awakened; his services were
crowded, and many added to the Church.
•When, in 1839, the church in Belfast was to be dedicated,
he was selected to deliver the sermon ; and he was then unani-
mously invited to become the pastor of the Society, but was
obliged to decline, on account of previous engagements. A few
years after, be accepted a second invitati<Mi to the place. His
ministry resulted in filling the house, and largely increasing the
number of members, both of the Society and Church. In 1848,
he resigned, and returned to his farm in Kenduskeag, and U>
the charge of the little Society among his kindred, and the
friends of his early life. In 1849 he acted as General Agent
for the Maine Universalist Missionary, Educational and Tract
Societres. In 1850^ he accepted a call to New Haven, Connect

some fifteen miles between the services. Another season, be

distance is still greater. In 1858, when in consequence of
many dUooaragements, the Society in Belfast was in a low con**
dition, the few friends who remained steadfast turning again to
Mr. Uodsdon for advice and encouragement. The house, which
had been closed for some time, was again opened, and his serrices
for a few Sundays, resulted in his re-engagement. His farm in
Eenduskeag was sold, and the present home of his family was
purchased. With exception of brief absences, at one time, when
Chaplain of the 24th Regiment, and another when preaching
to the Second Society in Portland, he continued to officiate here
till 1864, when, on account of the complete prostration of his
health, he was obliged forever to abandon the work to which
he had devoted his life.
His sickness^was long and painful. Since February, 1866,
his departure had been hourly expected by his friends; yet
most of the time he was able to walk out short distances, and
to take rides which he exceedingly enjoyed. Only the Satur-
day before his departure, he rode a short distance. That after-
noon he was taken worse, and expired on the mioming of the
Wednesday following, without a struggle.
He was one of our most faithful laborers. His convictions
were strong ; his heart was in the cause, and his preaching was
distinct, positive and earnest A devout and <praying man, he
made others devout and prayerful. He loved the Bible, the
Church and the Conference ; and the cause of vital religion
prospered under his ministry. Of commanding personal appear*
ance, courteous in manner and Christian in spirit, he won the
hearts of old and young, and made hosts of friends wherever he
resided or was^ known. The savor of his noble life still lingers
in the Churches which had enjoyed his ministrations ; and, being
dead, he yet speaks to the hearts of hundreds who have known

PREFACE.
We present to the Universalist Church its annual Register
for 1870. It will be remembered that this is its Centenary
Year. These statistics show something of the progress that has
been made in the course of one hundred years. From the lone
preacher who landed on the coast of New Jersey, the ministry
has grown to number more than six hundred earnest and devoted
men. We have churches in all the Northern and nearly all
the Southern States, meeting-houses scattered over the whole
country, and Academies, Colleges and Theological Schools.
The Register indicates with some degree of accuracy our pro-
gress as an organized Church. But of the real progress of our
faith it can give us but faint indications. The number of
believers in a world's salvation, outside of our Church, probably
fully equals the number within. .The truth is like leaven slowly
communicating its influence, and the time will come when the
whole mass will be leavened.
While this Register gives us some idea of the organized
strength of the Universalist Church, it is to be hoped that it
will aid in inciting those into whose hands it may fall, to do all
in their power towards accomplishing the great work which has
been marked out for our Centenary year. May that work be
fully commensurate with our ability I

BIOGRAPHICAL RECORD,
REV. JOHN BOYDEN.
Rev. John Boy den died in Woonsocket, September 28, 1869.
He was born in Sturbridge, Massachusetts, on the 14th of May,
1809, and had, therefore passed his sixtieth birthday. He at-
tended the public schools in his native town during his youth,
and, like most young men of scholarly inclinations at that
period, engaged in teaching school, winters, before he reached
his twentieth year. In 1829 he concluded to take up the
calling to which he had for some time felt drawn, and began
his studies for the Christian ministry under the direction of
Father Ballou« His first sermon was preached at Annisquam,
near Gloucester, Mass. In the following year (1830) he was
ordained at Berlin, Conn. It was his first settlement, and
here he remained four years. His next location was at Dud-
ley, Mass, where he continued as pastor until 1840, when he
removed to Woonsocket, where he had before preached occa-
sionally, and became the first pastor of the new society in that
place, which had just erected a church. The services of the
dedication ef the new church and the installation of the new
pastor took place on the same day, the 9th of April. He con-
tinued to discharge, with rare ability and scrupulous fidelity,
the duties to which he was then called, and the many collateral
trusts which the respect and confidence of his townsmen in>-
posed on him, until his death. His pastorate in Woonsocket
reached nearly the limit of thirty years, making his the
longest settlement among his contemporaries of the Univer*'
salist ministry.

Probably no man in our minUtrj was more universally hon-
ored and beloved than John Boy den. His presence was fth
as a benediction at every public or private gathering of the
brethren. When he rose to speak, all listened. If any one
dissented, he took care to express his dissent in terms of the
u(most deference. Nothing can be more beautiful than this
uniform, delicate regard, on the part of all his brethren, for
this unpretentious good man. Far beyond the limits of his
travels, in distant States, men spake of him with affectionate
veneration. That he was a sincere and humble Christian, no
one who knew him could doubt. His charitable judgment, per*
feet purity of purpose, and patient continuance in well doing,
made his life singularly serene, while they caused his influence
to extend and strengthen to the close. He was a reformer bj
instinct as well as by principle; and his tongue was never
silent when he felt that truth and righteousness commanded
him to speak. He loved freedom, and f>reachcd and prayed it
always. He believed in temperance, and gave the testimony
of his example, both in word and deed, for it. He was jealous
of the rights of all, and particularly of the weak and friendless.
In him the upright always had an ally ; and no bad man could
ever feel that he was his enemy.
As a preacher, he was one whom all appreciated, and vrh^e
words of wise counsel, expressed with felicity, and often with
the charm of poetry, sank deep into the heart of the hearer.
Probably no man ever had less idea of being a rhetorician ;
yet there was a grace and a richness of illustration in his stjie,
particularly when speaking off hand, that combined the best
effects of good rhetoric.
If goodness is greatness, he was preeminently a great man.
And his life illustrates, with striking force, how much more
valuable are high moral graces than showy intellectual gifts.
If every preacher of Universalism could acquire the blessed
influence for so many years wielded by John Boyden, what a

power of enlightenment and regeneration our ministry would
be I Beside the splendor of that just and gentle and Christ-
like life, how do all the exploits of mere celebrities grow dim !
"Who does not see that the only title worth winning or wearing
is that which God and good men, yea, and even the wicked
world, unite in conferring on such as he whose death we
mourn?
As a citizen, no man was more respected than Mr. Boyden.
While a resident of Dudley, he represented that town in the
lower branch of the Legislature and has filled both the Repre-
sentative and Senatorial positions in the general assembly of
Rhode Island. For many years he had charge of the public
schools of Cumberland, as visiting and examining committee ;
and his interest in the cause of education has been manifested
in many other positions.
Since last spring, the disease which finally terminated his life
had been steadily advancing, and he knew that all treatment
for it could only be palliative. As he had met all experiences
hitherto, so he encountered this, cheerfully. It was a sad pleas-
ure to converse with him in those last months. The same lively
interest in the cause, the same warmth toward his brethren, the
same sense of obligation as before, only heightened by the con-
viction that he was fast approaching the end of his earthly
journey. Serenely he went down into the valley of shadows,
which for him had become a mount of vision. His faith was
clear and strong to the last. Over and over he testified to its
sustaining power, and fell asleep in the same confidence in the
wisdom and goodness of the Father in which he had all along
lived. His death, so calm and so radiant with the light from
the other shore, was a fit close to such a life.

peared since his death. Neither the place of his nativity, nor
the date of hia birth, has been given to the public
Mr. Einnej had been pastor at Iowa City for above three
years. *^ Throwing his whole great soul into the work, he soon
gathered the scattered flock iuto the old church, and attracted
to himself, to a gratifying extent, the love and confidence of the
whole community. Laboring unceasingly, he built up the waste
places that years of neglect had caused in the church ; lho^e
who knew him so well, and confided so thoroughly in his con-
stant efforts, viewed with pride the success which crowned hia
thorough and unselfish devotion to his work. At the very height
of his usefulness and apparent vigor, when church and family,
friends and community could, spare him the least, and the
parting with him was the hardest, he was stricken with con-
sumption. Then came a struggle for life. He spent sonse
time, the summer before last, in the North, and last summer
started overland to California, in hope to stay the disease.
But he had delayed rest too long, and what might have been^
came not.
*' Conscious that the end was coming, he loved not life for
its own sake, but for its prolonged opportunities in doing good
in the work he had chosen, and he went through the last scene
of trial as passing to a triumphant proof of the gospel he be-
lieved and taught. Few are there so pure in spirit and so true
in life, and few that in all the trying scenes of life and the dart
hour of death will lean so confidingly upon the promises of the
Father of all.''
REV. DOLPHUS SKINNER. D.D.
Rev. Dolphus Skinner, D.D., died in Utica, New York, Octo-
ber 2, 1869. He was bom in Westmoreland, New Hampshire,

Skinner, of Vermont The years of his minority were spent in

AND ALMANAC FOR 1870. 75
labor on a farm, attendance of a neighboring Academy, and
teaching school. His theological studies v/ere pursued with
Rev. Samuel C. Loveiand, of Reading, Vermont. He was
licensed at the session of the General Convention, held in
Warner, New Hampshire, September, 1822^ in company with
Revs. L. Willis, T. F. King, M. B. Ballou, and others less
known. His first sermon was preached in Londonderry, Ver-
mont, July 22, 1822, and he was ordained at the Session of
the Northern Association, held in Whiting, Vermont, Septem-
ber, 1823. After itinerating in Vermont and New Hampshire,
and being located for a season in Langdon, New Hampshire, he
was settled at Saratoga Springs, in 1825. Afler a pastorate of
two years at the Springs, he removed to Utica, New York*
where and at Deerfield in the immediate vicinity of Utica, the
remainder of his life was spent.
Soon after his settlement at Utica, Dr. Skinner originated, or
at least took the editorial charge of the ^ Utica Magazine/'
The following year, the ^'Evangelical Repository,^' then publish-
ed at Troy by his friend Rev. L. Willis, was united with this,
and together they formed the ^^Evangelical Magazine^'' with
which Mr. Willis was for a time associate editor. With the
beginning of 1880, Mr. Skinner purchased the " Gospel Advo-
ccUe^ which for several years had been published at Bufialo>
and his paper thenceforth became the *' Evangelical Magazine
and Gospel Advocate'* It would be impossible to calculate the
influence which this periodical exerted through Central and
Western New York, and, indeed, throughout a large portion of
the United States. It gained a circulation which no paper
among Universalfsts had hitherto attained, and which has been
rarely if ever surpassed since. Dr. Skinner was devoted to it.
He threw his heart and strength into it, and his industry was
as untiring as his resources seemed inexhaustible. At the close
of 1835, Dr. Skinner disposed of the ^^Magazine and Advocate,"
though he continued for several years after to act as associate

editor. He was no less a preaclier than an editor. For serer-
al years he continued pastor of the Society in Utica, and when
he withdrew from that he prohablj did not lessen essentially his
clerical labors. Next to the Rev. Stephen R. Smith, with
whom he was long associated in ministerial duties, he was
undoubtedly the most popular preacher ever in (/cntral New
York. Possessed of a commanding person and a voice of great
volume and softness, combined with such a ready use of lan-
guage as never lefl him to hesitate in expressing the most rapid
course of thought, he was always a favorite with the people,
who listened to him with unwearied pleasure. His discourses
were generally doctrinal ; but he never forgot the moral bearings
of Christian truth, and his appeals to the conscience, and all the
higher affections of nature, could hardly fail to make a good
impression upon those who heard him. His kindlj nature and
warm sympathies made him especially desired at funerals, and
he was consequently called from far and near on such occasions.
Since February, 1848, he had preached three hundred and
twelve funeral discourses, and in performing this service mnst
liave travelled many thousand miles. How man j such sermons
he had delivered prior to the date above, is not now known, but
probably an equal if not a still greater number. He was veiy
faithful in attending Associations, Conventions, and other
denominational gatherings, and his influence was always in
favor of progress and peace. He was calm in council, and wise
in measures designed to promote the general welfare. He
loved to preach, and felt that it was the appointed means for
enlightening and saving the world ; and he continued to perform
the functions of his office as a minister of the gospel down
almost to the close of his life, and long after his faltering health
admonished him to husband his strength, and after his pecuniary
affairs absolved bim from all occasion to provide for his daily
bread. During his ministry of forty-seven years he preached,
as appears from his own memoranda, 5039 discourses, and oT
Digitized

AND ALMANAC FOR 1870. . 77
these sixteen were delivered during the present jear. His last
sermons were preached at Braman's Corner, and Burtonville,
New Yorky seventy or eighty miles from Utica on the 18th of
July, 1869.
Besides editing the ^ Magazine and Advocate^ Dr. Skin-
ner was the author of several valuable books and pamphlets.
Among these may be named his Letters to Drs. Aiken and
Lansing, his discussion with Rev. Alexander Campbell, a labored
article on the Tariff question, Letters on Episcopalianism, etc.,
besides almost innumerable communications to our religious
periodicals. He wielded a ready pen, and used it upon all occa-
sions when he thought he could contribute to the welfare, tem-
poral or spiritual, of his fellow men.
As he took a lively interest in all reforms, as temperance,
anti-slavery, and the like, so he deserves special mention as the
friend of education. To his wise counsels and patient persistent
endeavors, the Clinton Liberal Institute is largely indebted for
its present degree of prosperity, and in him the school has
lost one of its best friends.
In his social and domestic life. Dr. Skinner was eminently
happy. His temper was singularly calm, and his deportment
always such as becomes the Christian and the gentleman. At
home he was genial and affectionate, and among his friends ever
a welcome guest. As a good citizen he was patriotic, always
taking a lively interest in the political affairs of the country,
and not withholding his voice when he thought it would add to
a juster public sentiment or action. The late rebellion agitated
him greatly, and while he gave his youngest son to the service
of his country, he avowed his willingness to shoulder the musket
himself rather than see treason triumph over civil liberty.
For several years his health had been failing. A few weeks
before his death, he was seized with an attack of chronic difficul-
ty, attended with typhoid fever and chills. His sufferings were
great, but he retained his faculties unimpaired to the last. He

was fully aware of his situation, and said to his physician, ^I
am an old soldier, and am about to receive my discharge." To
a remark of his wife he said, <'My work is done. God is calHng
me." As death drew nearer, his sufferings were lessened ; and
after a night in which little pain save a sense of great exhaus-
tion, he passed away, as the sun rose, without a struggle or
groan.
REV. A. R. ABBOTT.
Rev. Alexander R. Abbott, died in Rockland, Maine, July 22,
1869, aged 56. He was a native of East Livermore in that
State. His early life was spent in rugged toil, through which
he acquired a strength of physical system, and an energy of
intellect and will for which be was distinguished in his mature
years. His advantages for obtaining an education were limited,
but his thirst for knowledge overcame his early deficiencies.
With little, if any, aid from others, he became proficient in
French, Latin and the mathematics, and for many years be was
successfully employed in teaching.
Mr. Abbott was somewhat advanced in life, when he resoWed
to give himself to the ministry. His first sermon was preached
while residing in Lowell, Massachusetts, in 1844, and his ordi-
nation took place during that or tlie following year. His first
settlement Was in Bath, New Hampshire. For a time he was
employed as a missionary, to preach in destitute places within
the limits of the Boston Association. Ailerwards he was
settled successively in Newburyport, Massachusetts, Pawtucket,
Rhode Island, Gardiner, Maine, South Dedham, Massacfao-
setts, Hudson, New York, and since November, 1865, in Rock-
land, where his labors were closed. For some months before
going to Rockland, he conducted with much ability, the " Chris*
Uan Repository,'' in Montpelier, Vermont, during the sickness of
its P^blisher and Editor, Rev. Eli Ballou, D.D,
Digitized

AND ALMANAC FOB 1870. 79
Mr. Abbott was an indefatigable student. Untiring in prepa-
ration, his themes were thoroughly finished, before he delivered
them in the pulpit or permitted them to appear in print. Clear
in his thoughts, he was equally clear in expression. No useless
verbiage encumbered his discourses, or marred the symmetry of
his published articles. When he grappled with the rugged
themes of doctrinal controversy, his tread seemed like that of a
giant. He loved to discuss the more recondite questions of
theology ; and his ministering brethren always found him ready
to give an intelligent opinion upon even the most diiBcult. His
last sermon before the Maine Convention in Augusta, will be
remembered as a clear and masterly treatment of one of the
problems which has greatly occupied the religious thought of
the day. He was equally strong when he enforced life's practi-
cal duties. As he never compromised with error, so he never
held truce with vice and sin. He stirred the consciences of his
hearers as few preachers do. He was outspoken as an anti-
slavery man, when to be so was to incur the hostility of men of
both political parties, and endanger his success in the places of
his settlement. The temperance cause always found in him a
firm, consistent, and able advocate. And while he was thus
efficient in performing the more rugged duties of his calling, he
was equally well fitted, by the tenderness of his heart, for the
more sympathetic offices of the ministry.
Mr. Abbott's death resulted from disease of the heart, aggra-
vated by the fracture of a limb. He was entirely conscious to
the last. Calmly and peacefully he descended into the dark
valley, leaning on the arm of his Father, and clearly seeing the
bright shores of the spirit land beyond. No murmur escaped
his lips. Without a struggle, he fell asleep in Christ.

REV. B. B. HALLOCK.
Rev. B. B. Hallock was one of the victims of the ^ Mast Hope
Disaster," on the Eije Railroad, July 16, 1869. Gaaght by the
legs in the crushed timbers of the car in which he was sitting,
although perfectly conscious and fuUj aware of his impeodiog
£ftte« he lifted his voice in prayer, and calmly met the devouring
flame.
Mr. Hallock was a native of Brockhaven, Long Island, and
was at the time of his death, 65 years of age. His original
profession was that of a teacher. Preaching at first only occa-
sionally, he finally ceased to teach, and gave himself wholly to
the work of the ministry. His settlements were in Stamford
and New Haven, Connecticut, with the Fifth Society, now
extinct, in New York City, in Mohawk, New York, and perhaps
other places. For a season he was associated with Rev. Heniy
Lyon, deceased, in the New York agency of the ^' ChriUian
MusengeTy^ and in the sale and publication of Universalist books.
For some twelve years he had seldom attempted to preach.
Mr. Hallock was a simple-hearted, meek, Christian man. He
was a good, correct, logical writer ; but his delivery was not
sufficiently energetic, perhaps owing to extreme diffidence, to
win for him a £ftvorable reputation as a preacher. But those
who met him &ce to ^ce knew his moral worth, and yielded
him cordial esteem. For some years his energies were
paralyzed, through adverse circumstances ; but his soul rallied
in all its force, under the fiery trial to which he was subjected.
Resigning himself to his sad fate, afler unavailing efiTorts for his
deliverance, he urged his friends to leave him, and calmly gave
his spirit into the hands of the Father.

REV. N. CARPER.
Rev. N. Carper died in New Petersburg, Ohio, May 15,
1869, aged 65. Reared in the doctrines of the Methodist
Church, at an early age he was enrolled among its preachers,
and was a faithful minister of that body. Before he had labored
five years, he caught glimpses of a better faith, and soon became
confirmed in the belief of a world's salvation through Christ.
Avowing this change of faith, he was brought into collision with
those with whom he was associated. The opposition he encoun-
tered was bitter and violent. We, of the present day, little
know the persecutions endured by those, who, half a century
ago, embraced our doctrines, in places where they were before
unknown. Both he and his family were subject to insults that
would not now be tolerated in civilized communities.
Soon after his conversion, Mr. Carper removed to Ohio,
settled in Green County, wrought with his hands during the
week, and preached the gospel to the poor on the Lord's Day.
This lie continued to do till his death. He had a retentive
memory, and was mighty in the Scriptures. Though not pol-
ished as a speaker, he was yet earnest, and his words carried
conviction. He never asked, and seldom received, pay for his
services, though having a large family dependent upon his
labors.
In his last sickness he suffered severely, but he bore his suf-
ferings with great patience. He felt them to be light, compared
with those of his Master. All who visited him found him stead-
fast in his faith, and his gaze immovably fixed on the " house
not made with hands." His last hours were calm and serene.

REV. D. K. LEE, D. D.
Rev. Day K. Lee, died in New York City, June 2, 1869,
aged 53. He was born in Sempronius, Cayuga County, New.
York. His early opportunities were limited, and bis only
academy, the country store. His studies for the ministry were
pursued with Rev. G. W. Montgomery, and his first sermon
was preached in Ann Arbor, Michigan, in 1835, ui the early
age of nineteen. He was settled successively in Newark, New
York, Salem, Massachusetts (Second Society)', Southbridge,
Massachusetts, Williamsburgh, Ogdensburg and Auburn, New
York, and, since 1865, over the Bleeker Street Church, New
York City.
Mr. Lee was both a worker and a student. Few ministers
ever obtained such a knowledge of books, whether of science}
philosophy, or belles-lettres ; and few knew so well how to
extract from them their pith and point. Himself a poet of no
mean quality, he delighted in all true poetry ; and no one better
profited by his reading, in the acquirement of forms of expres-
sion, as well as of fact. His studies were labor, — a labor of
delight ; and they told, as such studies always will tell, not
only upon his intelligence, but upon his personal power. In
science, as well as literature, he became expert He was espec-
ially versed in astronomy, which was a favorite study with him ;
and specially cultivating his powers of memory, he came to
lecture on this science, without notes, even of its various and
complicated arithmetic His pulpit efforts were a proof of what
resolute and systematic labor would accomplish for any one who
perseveringly undertakes it. It was a well-deserved tribute to
one who would never have sought it, when Tufts College, in
1864, conferred upon him the honorary degree of Master of
Arts; and again when in 1868, St. Lawrence Universitj
declared him Doctor of Divinity.

AND ALMANAC FOR 1870. 83
Dr. Lee*s contributions to our literature were many and
important. Making no pretensions to profound theological
learning, he was deeply impressed with the religious spirit; and
this oflen outflowed into our papers, in poetic or in simpler
form. He was one of the editors of the " Christian Amhassador^^
for 1866, and did good service in its columns. Some years ago
he prepared several volumes, containing Tales of Labor. These,
bearing the titles — ^^ Summerfield, or Life on a Farm,'* " The
Master-Builder, or Life at a Trade," and *^Merrimac, or Life in
the Factory," are works of merit, and have had a large sale.
In his departure our Church has suflfered a great .calamity.
He was one of the ablest and best of its ministers. Many there
are who mourn him as a friend and brother, sorrowing that they
shall see his face no more, as one of the purest and most saintly
of men. His modesty, his conscientiousness, his devotion to duty,
his affect ionateness, his religious spirit, all serve to make blessed
his memory, and more poignant the suffering excited by his loss.
They know what his faith was, — how childlike and devout No
one could be better prepared than he, by the study and experi-
ence of life, for the extremest emergency. In his sickness he
was so patient, so trusting, and so little troubled with the affairs
of this life that his departure was like the sun setting in its glory
at evening. He surely passed from earthly peace to heavenly.

It will be continued the same size and at the same price, keeping it

ments will make the demand for the Myrtle so large that the publishers
will be encouraged to make it a weekly paper of great excellence at
low cost.

of our Sunday Schools take it. But families of our Faith that reside
where there is no Sunday School of our Church will find it a help and a
welcome visitor to their children.

PREFACE.
We present to the Universalist public our Denominational
Register for 1871. To the many friends who have aided us in
making it what it is we tender our hearty thanks, and regret
it could not be made more perfect. But how can a perfect Reg-
ister be made out of the imperfect, inconsistent and meagre
materials we have to compile it from ?
The last year has been one of unprecedented activity through-
out the Denomination, as the foUowhi^g pages will show. The
Centenary impulse has not yet spent its force, and its full
results must be left for future Registers to recount.
Some new features have been introduced into our work this
year, which we hope will prove acceptable and useful. The
record of the year when our ministers were ordained, and
the material, value and sitting accommodations of our Meeting-
houses, — incomplete as such a record must be when first
attempted, — jirill at once suggest to our friends in particular
localities what information we are in need of, and we hope
stimulate them to inform us promptly what errors and imper-
fections they detect ; and by another year, following out our
present plan, we may reasonably hope to make a more complete
and accurate registration of our numbers and resources-.
But as changes are ever going on in our Ministry and in our
Churches, no record that can be made to-day will be exactly
correct to-morrow., In our view, it is a ground for just pride
and congratulation that we are dealing with living forces,
not with fossils and petrifactions capable of exact enumeration
and classification, that our religious body, everywhere, shows
signs of life, activity, movement, progress. The better educa-
tion of our ministers, the improving tone of spiritual culture
among our people, the multiplying and strengthening of our
religious, educational and benevolent institutions, and the
onward progress and pervading infiuence of our distinguishing
ideas will be exemplified by the record herewith presented,
and will, we trust, prove to be a source of pleasure to all " of
like precious faith," and a stimulus to greater efforts for its
extension and practical efficiency in the future.

The General Convention of Universalists, embracing the
United States and the British Provinces, meets annually on the
third Tuesday in September and continues in session three

Each State and Territorial Convention is entitled to be
represented by one clerical and two lay delegates ; if having an
aggregate of fifly Societies (or churches) and clergymen, by
two clerical and four lay delegates ; and for every additional
fifty parishes and preachers, one clerical and two lay delegates
more.
The first meeting for the purpose of organizing a Greneral
Convention of Universalists in the United States, was held in

Oxford Mass., September 14, 1785. The first annual session
of the Convention is supposed to have been held in Boston,
A.D., 1786, and the second in Milford, Mass., in 1787. " Here
all documents fail us," says Rev. T. Whittemore, *'and we can
learn no more of this body until 1791, when it met again in
Oxford, where Rev. Uo»ea Ballou attended it for the first time,"
and where he met for the first time Rev. John Murray.
This body was reorganized, under the name of the ^ General
Convention* of the New England States and Others," in
September 1803, at the session held in Winchester, N. H. It
was again reorganized under a new constitution, but still with
only advisory powers, September 19, 1833, at the session held
in Strafibrd, Yt., when it took the name it now bears. Its
present constitution, giving it legislative authority in matters of
discipline, is the result of many years of study, labor and
experience. It was incorporated March 9, 1866. It is
empowered to hold property, real and personal, to the amount
of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars^ " to be devoted exclusive-
ly to the diffusion of Christian knowledge by means of
Missionaries, Publications, and other agencies." It y:u
proposed at the session at Buffalo N. Y. in 1869 to raise
during the Centenary year, by voluntary contributions, the sum
of $200,000, to be called the Murray Centenary Fund, to be
permanently invested, the income to be expended in aid of
theological students, the distribution of Denominational litera-
ture, and in Church extension.
As we go to press this fund is so nearly raised as to be
assured in the early part^of the coming year, — one of the
gratifying results of united councils, and harmonious mi
persistent activity throughout our Denomination. The appeals
that have been made to our people to give money, give effort,
give power, and thus give success to our Faith, have not been
in vain. The rules of the Convention require that every
Church, Society, Sunday School, and individual believer in its
Digitized

AND ALMANAC FOR 1871. 19
fellowsliip shall contribute each year in aid of its fund. Imper-
ative needs demand a compliance with this rule, and call for
bequests, and annual subscriptions or donations from every
Universalist in the country according to his ability.

Noie.—B^ey. L. F. W. Andrews has published during tbe
past year a second edition of his work, ^ The Two Opinions,'
and will be able to scatter several hundred copies in the South;
also, 1,000 copies of his pamphlet correspondence between
himself and his Presbyterian father, which books have been
well received and been the means of bringing many to the
knowledge of the truth.
It ought to be added that there is scarcely any organizauon
of our friends in the extreme Southern States, but many
scattered believers in our Faith.

What more we can saj of the state of our cause in this State,
may best be given in the words of Rev. D. B. Clayton. He
says, under date of October 13, 1870: ♦'We have onlj two
ministers in the State, Br. S. M. Simons and myself. . .
I know of only one church building in this State now owned bj
Universalists, and that is located at Feasterville, Fairfield Co,
and worth about $600. ... I cannot say that there is an
organized church or society in the State. ... I have not
preached in this city since I have been living here. There is
no suitable place here and very few believers. But I design
trying to do something the coming winter to bring out the liberal
sentiment of the place. . . . I do most of my preaching in
North Carolina. There are 8 places in that State, on, and
contiguous to the Wilmington and Weldon Railroad, at whicli I
preach. I visit them once in three months, and spend about a
month among them preaching, and get fine audiences. There

are two meeting-houses, one in Samson Co., at Red Hill, and
one at Keenansville, Duplin Co., owned whollj by UniTersalists.
There are other houses there, as many as three, that I have
occupied, that are free to our ministers. Upon the whole, I am
sure our cause is on rising ground in Eastern North Carolina."
TEiriTESSEE.
There is no organization of our order in the State. The
only preacher is Rev. Thomas Childs, of Fayettville, Lincoln
Co., who is 74 years of age, and was never ordained. He was
formerly a preachei: in the Primitive Baptist Connection, but
for twenty years has preached the doctrine of Impartial Grace.

The Associations have ceased to exist as separate ecclesiasti-
cal bodies ; while their powers as to fellowship and discipline
have been merged in the State Convention, the occasions they
afforded for seasons of religious worship and spiritual quicken-
ing, have been superseded by special Conferences appointed
from time to time for those objects. The same change and
transfer of functions is happening to Associations, very advan-
tageously to our cause, in many other States. The tendency is
one which is worthy to be encouraged.

SMITHSON COLLEGE.
This is a new institution, to be located in Logansport,
Indiana, and named in honor of Joshua Smithson of Yevaj, io
said state, who, at his death in June 1867 left a bequest for
founding a school in Indiana to be under the control of the
Universalist Denomination. Since his death $50,000 additional
have been subscribed, of which sum Mrs. Elizabeth Pollard
subscribed $20,000.
The assets of the school consist of
Real estate (12^ acres of land) 4,000
Monej pledged for endow roent, 16,000
" « "buildings, 42,000
$62,000
A vigorous and thorough canvass of the state has been com-
menced and it is confidently expected that $100,000 can be
raised for the school before the current year closes. The site
for the College is a very fine one. Contracts have been made
for the erection of the central building, and the work is being
pushed so as to open the school in September 1871. The
building, including the wings, is to be 326 feet long, and will be
elegantly finished, and combine all the modem improvements;
be heated by steam and lighted with gas ; and as a boarding
school for both sexes it is intended to be in no way inferior to
any institution in the country.

several years afterwards in the southern part of the village,
about half a mile from the male department, overlooking the
Oriskany valley and fronting Hamilton College, on its opposite
slope. The institute is in a most prosperous and flourishing
condition. The instruction is thorough, the discipline mild and

DEAN ACADEMY.
Dean Academy, chartered in 1865 and located in Franklin,
(Norfolk Co.) Mass., derives its name from Oliver Dean,
M.D., of that town, who gave the valuable site, (formerly the
estate of Rev. Dr. Nathaniel Emmons, a renowned Orthodox
Divine), together with, from first to last, about $135,000 in
cash. A large amount of money was also raised in the state
for the benefit of the School, in erecting buildings, furnishing)
etc.
The Academy edifice, spacious, solid and beautiful, cost, with
its furniture and apparatus, gas, building, etc., nearly $200,000.
There are two regular courses of study, one the " Academic,"
the other the "Collegiate Preparatory." The endowments

already generous, will be, when completed, ampler than are
possessed by any similar institution in the denomination, per-
haps we may say, in the whole country. Besides the great
amount of unproductive property, of which mention has been
made, the Academy has funds invested of not less than
$60,000.
It gives us pleasure to state here also that the Trustees are
now taking steps to institute, in connection with the Academy, a
Collegiate Course for young women which shall be in all respects
fully equal to that pursued by young men at "Tufts." Before
this reaches the eyen of our readers, it is expected that this
collegiate course will be in successful operation. A large portion
of the funds for this movement has been provided by Dr.
Dean.

OBITUARY NOTICES.
REV. IRA ADAMS.
This young brother, who gave promise of great usefulness in
the Grospel Ministry, died of consumption, at the house of his
father, near Frewsburg, (Chautauque Co.) NJT., December 21,
1869, in the 29th year of his age. He was born April 5,
1841, in Newtonville, Massachusetts, and removed with his
parents in 1847 to the house where he closed his eyes in death.
He began to study for the ministry with Rev. I. George, in
Dunkirk, New York, in the Spring of 1864, and in the autumn of
that year entered the Theological School at Canton. He was
the only member of the class of 1867, but by reason of ill health
was unable to complete the course of study. In February, 1867,
he made an engagement to preach in Stockton and Ellery, New
York, one-half of the time in each place, aud at once entered on
Ills pastoral duties. On the 10th of the following July he was
married to Miss Marcia A. Simmons, a graduate of that year
from St. Lawrence University, who, with two young children,
are left to bear the burdens of life alone. The courage, forti-
tude and devotion which she displayed during those brief years
of trial, won the sympathy and respect of all who observed he^
in her bereavement.
Mr. Adams was ordained to the work of the ministry at
Stockton, New York, September 26, 1867, and notwithstanding
the discouragement of ill-health, he continued to perform the
duties of his chosen profession faithfully and successfully until
August 1869, when he was compelled to close his regular-
pastoral labor. He proposed to enter into some light secular
business, and to preach wh'^never his health would permit. But

he was unable to carrj out hia plan. He preached hU last
sermon in Sherman, New York, August 8, 1869, from which
time he sank steadily to his grave, leaving behind a name of
good report wherever he was known. Those who were most
intimate with him bear testimony to his fidelity to the Christian
ministry, and speak enthusiastically of his purity, his modesty,
his consecration of purpose, and of his genial qualities of charac-
ter which raised up around him, and attached firmly to him, a
wide circle of friends.
REV. THOMPSON BARBON.
Mr. Barron died very suddenly in Sutton, New Hampshire,
January 4, 1870, in the 54th year of his age. He was born in
Billerica, Massachusetts, April 17, 1816. He lost his father
when he was four years old, and at the age of eight left hi<
mother and went to live* with a farmer in Jaffrey, New Hamp-
shire, staying with him till he was fourteen, and then worked
with a carpenter and joiner in that town to obtain money to
attend school. His earliest purpose, it is said, was to be a
preacher. He worked at his trade awhile in Boston, and there
listened to Father Ballou's preaching. He attended school for
a time at Lexington, Massachusetts. It is said that a wealthy
and bigoted aunt offered to pay his expenses in getting a
Collegiate education, but that learning he had become a
Universalist, she withheld the proffered aid and willed the
money to the Sandwich Islanders. He studied for some montb
with Rev. John Gregory in Woburn, Massachusetts ; preached
his first sermon in that town, February 16, 1836; and in the
following June was admitted to the fellowship of the Massacha-
setts Convention. His first regular engagement appears to hare
been in Abington, Mass., but he soon went to Bridgewater.
Vermont, where he was ordained November 2, 1837. He
preached in Bridgewater and in that vicinity until the Spring

of 1841 ; then removed to Winchester, New Hampshire ; then,
in January, 1846, to Concord, in tHe same Slate; then, in the
Spring of 1851, he removed to Dayton, Ohio; then, in the
Autumn of 1853, to Marietta, Ohio; then, in December, 1856,
he went to Muscatine, Iowa. In the Spring of 1858 ill-health
induced him to return to New Hampshire and settle, first in
Enfield, then in Wentworth, and lastly in Newport, where he
bought a small farm and where he continued to live until his
death. On the 4th of January, 1870, he left his home to attend
a funeral in Sutton on the following day, staying over night at
the house of a friend, and apparently in his usual health and
spirits. On going out in the evening and not immediately
returning his friend went to look for him and found him a few
steps from the door, but life was extinct. He leaves a widow
and a large family of children to mourn his sudden departure.
He did a great amount of missionary work in the various places
of his residence, and was a forcible and impressive preacher.
He was a man of positive views in theology, and thoroughly
denominational in his doctrinal system. But his popularity was
limited. With an excitable and impetuous temperament, he had
a marked and independent character ; was ardent and erratic ;
and passed through the trials usually incident to men of such a
sensitive and peculiar organization.
REV. JOSHUA HICKS.
We have been able to learn only a few particulars concern-
ing Mr. Hicks. The substance of all we can gather is that he
died at Pilot Grove, Iowa, January 13, 1870, at an advanced
age, after an illness of only two days, that he was a faithful
preacher, and continued his labors in the ministry until quite
aged, and was never so happy as when preaching the Gospel
and doing all he could to extend its influence. He was well
and widely known in Indiana.

REV. GEORGE W. GAGE.
Mr. Gage was bom in New London, New Ilampsliire, in
181 G, and at the age of eighteen entered an Academy at Can-
andaigua, New York, whither his family hud removed when he
was ten years old. He bore from his teacher certificates of
scholarship of the first order, and in the ensuing year entered
Clinton Liberal Institute. Here he mastered the Greek, Latin
and Hebrew languages, and was recommended by Dr. T.
Clowes as a student of superior merit, both mentally mid
morally.
At the age of twenty -one he commenced preaching : first at
New Hartford, New York, and then at Poughkeepsie, New
York. In 1840 he was settled in Manchester, New Hamp-
shire. His friends and correspondents became numerous:, and
were among the first in the order. He was enthusiasticallv
devoted to his calling. At one time he was Assistant Editor of
the Star of Bethlehem, published in Lowell, Massachusetts, and
he was a contributor to other periodicals. He acquired a
knowledge of the German language and furnished some transla-
tions from the German for their columns. After preaching in
Manchester four years he married and settled in Chicopeet
Massachusetts. While living here his health became impaired,
and on the death of his wife and child, of whom lie was bereaved
two years af\er marriage, he was forced to desist from regular
pastoral work, and became an itinerant. But a bronchial
trouble at length obliged him to quit preaching altogether for
two years. In 1850, his health reviving, and having an unwa-
vering attachment to the Gospel ministry, he settled in Fort
Plain, New York, but finding active exercise in the open air
and rest from public speaking necessary to the preservation of
his vocal organs, he retired to his father's farm in Canandaigua,
preaching however in that vicinity as often as health and oppor-
tunity permitted. In 1852 he married again. When no longer
Digitized

AND ALMANAC FOR 1871. 103
a regular preacher, he became active in the Sunday School.
Here he made himself a home which expressed the elegance
and taste of his refined and cultivated mind, overcoming
obstacles which many stouter hearts might have declined to
encounter. But he was not content to live for himself or his
own family, merely, and though still frail at the lungs, was
tempted to accept an invitation to settle over the society in New
London, Connecticut, one of the most arduous undertakings of
his ministerial life. His labors there, with constant exposure
through the winter of 1869, brought again to light the long
concealed germs of incurable consumption. Among his papers
there is a valuable MS. history of the War of the Rebellion,
occupying 700 pages, which is considered by good judges who '
have examined it, to be one of the most accurate records of that
war that has been written. It was the fruit of years of labor,
and three times re-written. Want of means has prevented its
publication. From the learning, ability and industry of the
author we doubt not that its publication would be serviceable
to the cause of truth, and form a creditable monument to the
memory of the writer.
" There were large intellectual and moral powers in the
man," writes his cousin, Mr. Almon Gage, " and his scholarly
attainments were good and his general information vast. The
gifts and graces that make a popular preacher were not his in a
very large or marked degree, and yet he was a good writer and
sermonizer. I was with him some days before and at the
closing scene. He was calm in the contemplation of death and
unshaken in the faith he had preached. I asked him how he
felt as to the future. He replied instantly and with a degree of
rapture, *I trust in the Infinite Love,' and added, with a pleasant
smile, * Is not that all-sufficient ?' He was a good man, and
gave heart and hand to every movement for reform, education,
and the bettering of the condition of his fellow men." Thus
peacefully, and in the triumphs of faith, he went to his rest at
Canandaigu^, New York, October 5, 1869, at the age of 53.

104 UNIVERSALIST BEGISTER
REV. TERRELL H. RUSH.
Rev. Terrell H. Rush of DeKalb, (Kemper Co.) Mississippi,
departed this life in Pulaski Co., Arkansas, February 15, 1870.
He was originally a Methodist preacher, but was converted to
Universalism bj the preaching of Rev. £• H. Lake some years
before the war of the rebellion. He was about 60 years of age
at the time of his death. He had gone to Arkansas with one of
his sons, on business, and from exposure on that journey he was
taken sick never to recover. He was aware of his condition, as
the end drew near, and made preparation for it. Death had no
terrors for him, and the hope of a world's salvation was the
subject on which he delighted to talk and in which he gloried.
His funeral took place at DeKalb, Missouri, on the last Sabbath
in May, 1870, in the Methodist Episcopal Church, which w«
kindly tendered for the purpose. Rev. S. J. McMorris, who
officiated at the funeral service, writes us that Bro. Rush ** wa«
a tender husband, and kind father, a good neighbor, and remarfi-
able for his hospitality. His home was open to every one that
came his way, and his brethren of the Methodist Ministry called
on him as usual, after his conversion to Universalism, and
seemed to love him still. Bigotry itself could not break the
hold which he had obtained over their affections.'*
The Masonic Fi-aternity, to which he belonged, turned out in
force at his funeral, and a great gathering of people testified
their respect for his memory. He preached by his example, as
much as, or more than, any other way, for while a very exem-
plary man in his life, he was timid and reserved in manner, and
did not much like to appear before the public and encoanter
opposition. But though he preached only occasionallj, he
loved the cause of Universalism, greatly desired to see it
prosper, and labored for it according to his ability. He had the
honor of being the only preacher of our faith residing within
the limits of the great State of Mississippi.

REV. WILLARD C. GEORGE, M.D.
Dr. George was a native of Norway, Maine. Whilst a mere
lad he served two years at the printing business in Norway. In
early manhood, having experienced the religion of Universal
Grace, he received the fellowship of the Maine Convention of
Universalists. He spent the first two years of his ministry
(1836-7), in Bremen, Maine, and in that neighborhood, and in
1838 he was settled in Dresden in the same State where he
remained four years. In 1842 he removed to Calais, Maine, and
preached to the joint societies in that place and St. Stephen, New
Brunswick, until 1851. Being convinced that to save his life he
must change his occupation, he adopted the medical profes-
sion, taking a trip to Europe, to gain information from foreign
sources that might aid him in his new vocation. On his return
home be published a book of his travels and observations
abroad. While pursuing his medical studies he supplied the
pulpit of the Universalist Society at Stevens Plains, and after
graduating at a Medical School in Worcester, Massachusetts, he
returned to Calais and commenced the practice of medicine.
He removed after some years to Kinderhook, New York, then
to Charlton, Massachusetts, but finally returned to his native
Norway, where he died on the 3d day of October, 1869, in the
58th year of his age.
He entered the ministry of Universalism from an ardent love
of its doctrines, and never left it but when driven from it by ill
health. He was an interesting, instructive and successful
preacher, and though of a feeble voice his sermons were always
of a high order. He was not only a sound theologian, but well
versed in the physical sciences, upon which he frequently
lectured.
Rev. N. Gunnison, who was his pastor in Norway for some
years and an intimate personal friend, writes of him as follows :
" lie was one of the most modest and retiring men I ever knew,

and never soaght place or notorietj. He was as successful ai
a physician as he was as a minister. He preached till his Toice
utterly broke down. He never abandoned the purpose of
returning to the ministry as soon as his health would allow.
Not one year before he died he told me that his heart was in
the ministry of Univcrsalism, and if he ever recovered hisheahh
he should return to it. For three of the closing years of his life
he was a consistent supporter of my meeting, always in his
place, always ready to speak iu our Conference meetings,
Sunday Schools, and Church meetings when not away on
business, and he always spoke well and to edification, though
frequently his speeches were cut short for want of voice. A
few weeks before he died I spent a day with him. He was
almost worn out, but his faith was strong, and he was patientlj
waiting the time of his departure.
^ He was a good parishioner. I would like a whole societj
made up of such ex-ministers as he. He was always a safe
counsellor, and a real help to his minister. I cannot say too
much in eulogy of Bro. George. He was Christian all throogb,
and gave his life to every good work. He left a most devoled
wife and three daughters, all of them true to his faith and
earnest workers in the same good cause."
REV. TRUMAN STRONG.
He was one of the oldest and best beloved of our ministers in
Ohio. He was born in Poultney, (Rutland Co.) Vermont,
March 7, 1790, and died in Fredericktown, (Knox Ca) Ohio,
March 7, 1 870, having exactly completed the 80th year of his
age. For nearly sixty years he had made his home on the
farm where he died, and for nearly My years he had been an
efficient and faithful minister of the Universalist denomination.
He was one of the most earnest pioneer preachers, one of tboae

self-iaacrificing spirits who preached the " glad tidings " simplj
because he wanted the world to hear the same " good news "
which had so rejoiced his own heart. It maj truly be said of
him that he lived the doctrine he professed. He had for some
time felt that his work on earth was done, and yet was willing,
yea anxious, in the last year of his life to lift up his voice in
promulgation of the great Salvation.
He leaves a widow and three children to mourn his death,
but the denomination is also a loser and a mourner. " We can
safely say " writes one who knew him intimately, '^ that no old
soldier of the Cross in Ohio ever left a more pleasant memory
for the comfort of his friends, or went down to his grave more
generally respected and beloved in the circle in which he lived
than Truman Strong. Old, when most of the preachers of
our faith in Ohio were young, he possessed the esteem of the
brotherhood, and was widely loved among the people for the
simplicity and purity of his life. His presence at our Conven-
tions and Associations was always a special charm of such
gatherings, and no one who ever looked on his benignant face
will ever forget its mild peace and beauty, and the hope and
trust breathed forth in his words. His presence was itself a
benediction, and lent an added sanctity to the most solemn
service of the sanctuary. He was a good man, and his name
will be held amongst us in honored remembrance as one of the
pioneer preachers of our faith, now, alas, dropping rapidly
away from us."
REV. TOBIAS HAM MILLER.
He was the son of John and Ruth Miller, and bom in Ports-
mouth, New Hampshire, August 10, 1801, and died in Ports-
mouth, March 30, 1870. Losing his father while yet a child,
the care of his early training was lefl to his mother who was a
woman of great energy and piety. He gained the rudiments of

education in the public school, but he was apprenticed to the
printing business at thirteen years of age, and never attended
school a day afterwards. While employed in the office of the
Newburyport (Massachusetts) Herald^ he fornied the acquaiDt-
ance of John G. Whittier and William Lloyd Garrison. With
the latter he stood side by side at the printer's case, and a strong
and life-long friendship sprang up between them. Mr. Garri-
Bon writes concerning his old friend Miller thus : "I was drawn
to him magnetically from the beginning ; and, whether working
side by side at the case or the press, unbroken friendship
subsisted between us to the end. Indeed, bo far as he was
concerned, it would have been extremely difficult for the mo^
irascible to have picked a quarrel with him. He had woDde^
ful self-command, patience, cheerfulness, urbanity and philosophic
composure, far beyond his years. I never saw him out of
temper for a moment under the most trying circumstances, (ami
a printing-office often presents such), nor cast down by any
disappointment, nor disposed to borrow trouble of the future.
"He was a very Benjamin Franklin for good sense and axio-
matic speech, and in spirit always as fresh and pure as a newlj-
blown rose. In his daily walk and conversation he was a pattern
of uprightness, and from his example I drew moral inspiration
and was signally aided in my endeavors after ideal perfection
and practical goodness. His nature was large, generous, sym-
pathetic, self-denying, reverent. He was as true to his highest
convictions of duty as the needle to the pole. No one was ever
more yielding in the matter of accommodation where no principle
was involved ; none more inflexible in pursuit of the rigbt**
After serving as a printer in Newburyport and in Boston, he
returned to Portsmouth and became the Associate Editor of the
Portsmouth Journal ; afterwards, and for seventeen years of his
life, he was Associate Editor of the Portsmouth Ckrmide,
which he originally projected. He was also, at different times,
during those years, emploj^ed as Editor of the New Hampshire

In earlj life he was an Orthodox Congregationalist, bj which
denomination he was ordained and first settled as a preacher.
But deep and conscientious and faithful study of the Scriptures
led him to accept the broader and better faith of Universalism,
and thenceforward he continued to preach that doctrine to the
end of his life. It is an interesting fact, as indicating the respect
in which he was held by his former brethren, that they never
cast the slightest aspersion on his character or motives. They
continued to respect him and fellowship him as a Christian, and
there is hardly an Orthodox church within a score of miles of
his residence in which he has not stood since he became a
Universalist. In the morning of his life he espoused the cause
of temperance, and to the end was one of its most earnest and
consistent advocates. The anti-slavery cause also shared the
influence of his voice and pen years ago when it cost a man
something to take such a stand, and he spoke and wrote against
slavery with eloquence and power. Soon after the "Proclama-
tion of Emancipation" was issued by President Lincoln, Mr.
Miller repeated in the Universalist Pulpit in Portsmouth a
sermon, which he wrote and preached nearly thirty years before
on the subject of slavery, which showed how accurately he had
forecast the future, and how happily to himself, and how happily
to the millions of bondmen, his early auguries had been fulfilled.
And on the very day that President Grant issued his proclama-
tion declaring the Fifteenth Amendment a part of the funda-
mental law of the land, having seen the Salvation of the Lord,
he departed in peace and " was gathered to his fathers."

KEV. CHARLES SMITH BROWN.
Mr. Brown was born in Oneida County, New York, Marcb
20, 1804. He was early apprenticed to the trade of chair-
maker and ornamental painter. At the age of fourteen hi^ em-
ployer removed to Rochester, Munroe County, where he became
interested in religious things and joined the Methodist Church,
though at that time believing in the final salvation of the whole
world. Becoming acquainted with Rev. Stephen R. Smith, he
was induced to enter our ministry, spending some time first
with Mr. Smith, and then with Rev. Dolphus Skinner. He
was ordained at Bainbridge, New York, in 1832. His first
settlement was in South Oxford, Chenango County, from
whence he removed to Upper Lisle, Broome County. For a
few years he lived in Pennsylvania, then in Oneida and Cort-
land Counties, New York, but finally removed some thirtees
years ago to Cambridge, Illinois, where he died in May, 1870.
During all the years of his ministry, Mr. Brown, like so many
preachers of his time, was never able to secure more than a
very humble subsistence. By hard work and the severest
economy and self-denial he saved enough to purchase a small
farm in Cambridge, where he lived in quiet and comfort during
the latter years of his life, preaching occasionally, but having
no pastoral charge. He was a good, though not a brilliant
preacher. His soul was full of the Gospel. He loved his faith,
he loved his brethren, he loved the Lord. It is enough to ssj
that he was a humble, sincere, honest, good man and Christtan.
During his last days he often spoke of the comforting and
sustaining power of his faith, and charged that no one should
say he mourned as he saw the end approaching, for his hope in
the salvation of all men was never brighter. He left a widov
and three children, all settled in Cambridge, to mourn their loss.

REV. ALFRED B. ELLIS.
Rev. Alfred B. Ellis died in Soath Dedham, Massachusetts,
the place of his birth, October 10, 1870, aged 30 years. He
entered the Theological School at Canton at the age of 20, and
taking the full course of three years, graduated with honor. He
has been six years in the ministry, during which time his labors
have been in the West, part of the time in the far West. He
was settled tirst at Belvidere, III., where he remained three
years doing a very good and successful work, rebuilding and
permanently establishing an old and broken-down society.
While here he married Miss Charlotte Bishop, who thus early
in her life has been called to give him up at God's summons. In
April he returned to his father's house in South Dedham, since
which time his health has steadily and rapidly declined until his
death. He had been fully aware from the beginning of the nature
of his disease, and entertained no hope of recovery. Though
standing face to face with death all these months, and having as
many and as strong attachments to life as any man, yet he
never for a moment murmured at what was clearly the will of
God. He put his trust in his heavenly Father, and so with
calmness and cheerfulness and patient trust he awaited the
coming of the end. His death was happy, triumphant. The
folding up of the spirit for its rest was as gentle and peaceful as
the noiseless falling of the shadows of evening. The intimate
friends of Mr. Ellis testify that his character was one of remark-
able simplicity and purity. At school, his companions say, he
seemed to be absolutely without guile. There was a gentle
dignity about his nature which they remember and speak of as
being very impressive. All his words and deeds, and daily
walk, though in no way demonstrative, shone with the lustre of
so pure a soul that they spoke him every inch a Christian. And
although he was a good writer and preacher of sermons, his
success in the ministry was an illustration of the influence of a

consecrated christian life rather than the power of the pulpit in
saving men. He had originally a profoundly religioos nature
which had been assiduously cultivated all bis life. Hi^ ftims
were all high and noble. He came into the ministry from a
devout sense of duty, which to him was unmistakably the cal^
of the voice of God. And there are few men in any ministij
who more deeply or clearly, or we might almost say more pain-
fully, felt the weight of the sacred responsibilities of that office,
or more patiently and diligently strove to fulfil them than did
he. One scarcely needs to add that he succ^eeded in the highest
and best sense of the term. Death appeared in his hanlest
guise to our brother when thoughts of the surrendering of this
precious work would crowd themselves upon bim. But his
ministry even on earth is not ended. The influence of so fair a
life is far above the reach of death.
REV. WILLIAM CAMPBELL.
Rev. William Campbell was bom November 21, 1781, at or
near Brownsville, Fajette County, Pennsylvania, and in 1797
he went to the North Western Territory, now Ohio, and settled
in Gallia County when the country was an almost unbroken
wilderness. He was always of a religious turn of mind and on
the 11th of July, 1802, joined the Halcyon [a partialist]
Church in Kenawha, now Mason County, West Virginia. Ii
is not known at what time he was converted to the Univerealist
Faith, but it was many years ago, after which time he com-
menced preaching that doctrine, and he remained in that 6iith
until his death, which took place at Wilkesville, (Vinton Co.)
Ohio, on the 16th of March, 1870. He died rejoicing in the
hope of the salvation of the whole human family.

CONCLUSION.
In closing our record for the current year, we are enabled to
state, from memoranda gathered with great pains from oar
periodicals, that there have been built, or projected and provided
for, since the last Register went to press, 99 new meeting-
houses, besides 36 old ones essentially rebuilt or extensively
repaired, making a total of 135 meeting-houses completed or
commenced within the Centenary year ; of which number 50
have already been dedicated. In the current year, also, there
have been 28 new preachers ordained, besides the accession oi
several others to our ministry from other Denominations.
Within the same period there have been contributed or pledge«J
for Meeting- Houses, Parsonages, Schools, Colleges, and other
benevolent objects, about $900,000, aside from ordinary parish
expenses, and independently of the Murray Fund of $200,000,
which is now nearly raised and sure to be completed at an earlj
day ; making an aggregate of $1,100,000 permanently invested
for the building up and extension of the Gospel of Universal
Grace in our Iflnd. For all these encouraging demonstrations
we have cause to be tiiankful to God for his blessing on oar
labors, and may well take new courage for the work whicb
presses on us in the future.
In the Register for 1872 we shall give an account of tic
number and condition of our organized churches and societl^
having already gathered extensive materials for the purpose,
but they were found too scanty and imperfect to be used to
advantage in our present issue.

pkefaceI
Wb herewith sabmit to the public the Vhiversalist Register
for 1872. Its plan and scope have been coiifiidcrablj enlai^ge^
and many things attempted to be exhibited for the first time;
such as the date of formation of our parishes, charches and
Sabbath Schools, with the number of members in them respee-
tiyelj ; the date of dedication (or purchase and occapancj, as
the case may be) of our church edifices ; and the total Talae of
church property of every kind, including parsonages, chi^el%
yestries, funds invested, &c., &c,
That some defects and discrepancies should be found in a
first attempt of this kind is not strange. Such bs we have
detected, since the body of the work was printed, we hare
corrected in the '' C!oncluding Notes," at the end. In con-
structing 60 many tables,^ and dealing with such multitudinous
details, some errors and omissions are almost unavoidable.
We have sought to report everything truly. The humble
place of worship, built of logs, costing $60, in the edge of the
Western wilderness, we have reported as scrupulously as the
sumptuous church edifices in our cities, which cost hundreds of
thousands of dollars. So, too^ we have aimed to report the
feeble beginnings of Church tmd Sunday School enterprises,
as faithfully as the older and lai^er ones.
The list of ministers has been pruned with unusual care, ancl
many names of good and worthy men have been striken fnmi
the list for the sole reason that they have abandoned the minis-
try for secular business. In this way the list has been dimini-
shed by about a 8Core„ besides those disfellowshipped for
unworthy conduct And all this has been done by the Conven-
tions to which the men belonged. The Editor has assumed no
responsibility in the matter, but merely registered the Acts,

PREFACE. lU
reported to him by Secretaries of State Conventions, CSommit-
tees of Fellowship, Ordination and Discipline, or other proper
authority.
This pruning of the list of ministers, and the more carefal
and strict discipline of our ecclesiastical bodies will account for
the small apparent increase in our clerical force. In fad, the
gain by accessions of new men has been such as to counteract
both (he unusual loss by death ( 22 } and the loss by withdrawal
of fellowship, (about as many more), and etill leave a small
surplus, which may be considered as on the whole a favorable
report. The gain in our clerteal force is therefore^ in rts^j^
much greater than the numerical increase would indicate.
Since the printing of this year's Register commenced, two of
our ministers have deceased and several have changed their
residence, to say nothing of other changes that must necessarily
take place in the course of two months.
Our work is at the best but a sort of instanfaneomi view of
a living, moving, growinji; body, and cannot properly be required
to be exactly true beyond the day it is issued.
As aflbrding a not altogether inadequate view of Universal-
ism and the Universalist Denominatron in America at this date»
car humble work is respectfully submitted to the pubUc
November 24, 1871.
Expljlnation. — In the following pages the fractionff affixed
to parishes indicate the proportion of Sabbaths they have
preaching; oc signifies occasional ; dor, dormant ; the date pre*
fixed to parishes, churches and Sunday Schools denotes the year
when they were respectively organized; the date prefixed to
Meeting Houses shows when they were dedicated or porehased
and ready for use; the date prefixed to a preacher's name
shows the year of his ordination, unless L (licensed) or #
(fellowshipped) is also prefixed; the names of preachers net
ordained are in Italics ; the parallel lines ( || ) denote not in
formal fellowship; the dagger (f) having no pastoral charge.

STATISTICS OF THE UNIVERSALIST CHURCH IN
NORTH AMERICA.
Corrected to Novembbr 1, 1871.
GENEEAL CONVENTIOir.
The UNIVERSALIST General Convention embraces the
United States an^ British Provinces, and meets annuallj on
the third Tuesday in September and continues in session three
days.
The first meeting for the purpose of organizing a General
Convention of Universalists in the United States was held in
Oxford, Massachusetts, September 14, 1785. The first annual
session of the Convention is believed to have been held in
Boston, A.D., 1786, and the second in Milford, Massachusetts,
in 1787. " Here all documents fail us," says Rev. T. Whitte-
more, "and we can learn no more of this body until 1791, when
it again met in Oxford, where Rev. Hosea Ballou attended it
for the first time," and where he met for the first time the Rev.
John Murray.
This body was re-organized, under the name of the "General
Convention of the New England States and Others," in Sep-
tember, 1803. at the session held in Winchester, New Hamp-
shire. It was again re-organized, under a new constitution, but
as before with advisory powers only, September 19, 1833, at
the session held in Strafford, Vermont, when it took the name
It now bears. It was incorporated March 9, 1866. Its present

constitution as revised and amended, adopted at tbe Centenarj
meeting in Gloucester, in September, 1870, and ratiaed by the
aaajority of the State Conventions, giving it the requisite legis-
lative authority to secure harmony of action, cooperation in
missionary work, and uniformity of Fellowship, Ordination and
Discipline throughout its jurisdiction, is the result of many long
years of study, labor and experience.
For the information of the public and the benefit of all
concerned, we give it in full, as follows :
CONSTITUTION.
PREAMBLE.
To establish union, fellowship and an efficient organization,
and thus to secure a uniform system of government, and the
various ends for which any Christian Church exists, we, the
Universalists of the United States, form ourselves into a
General Convention, and ordain for it the following Coasti-
tution :
Article I. — Title.
This body shall be known as The Universalist General
Convention.
Article II. — How Constituted.
1. This Convention shall be composed of the Presidents (or,
in their absence, the Vice-Presidents) and Secretaries of the
several State Conventions in its fellowship, of clerical and lay
deleoates from each of these Conventions, and one delegate from
the ^District of Columbia and each Territory, as hereinafter
provided. . '
2. Each State Convention, regularly admitted to fellowship,
shall be entitled to one clerical and two lay delegates. If there
be organized Universalist Parishes in any State or Territory,
which has no Convention, they may unite to choose one
delegate, who shall be entitled to full membership in the General
Convention. If there be but one such Parish in any unor-
Digitized

AND ALMANAC FOR 1872. '27
ganized State or Territory, it shall likewise be entitled to one
delegate.
3. Each State Convention, having in its fellowship an
aggregate of fifty parishes and clergymen, shall be entitled to
two clerical and four lay delegates ; and for every additional
fifty parishes and clergymen, to one clerical and two lay dele-
gates : It being provided that, to be counted in this basis of
representation, every parish must retain its legal existence and
support a public worship, and every clergyman must be actually
engaged in the work of the ministry, unless disabled by years
or sickness.
4. This Convention shall be the judge of the election returns
and qualifications of its members.
» 5. Members from seven States (not less in the aggregate
than twenty-five persons) shall be a quorum to do business, but
a less number may adjourn and demand the attendance of
absentees.
Article III. — Powers.
1. This Convention shall have jurisdiction over the State
Conventions in its fellowship.
2. An expressed assent to the Confession of Faith, adopted
by this body at its Session at Winchester, New Hampshire,
A.D. 1803, shall be essential to fellowship with this Convention,
tovfk:
Art. I. We believe that the Holy Scriptures of the Old
and New Testaments contain a revelation of the character of
God, and of the duty, interest and final destination of mankind.
• Art. IL We believe that there is one God, whose nature
is Love, revealed in one Lord Jesus Christ, by one Holy Spirit
of Grace, who will finally restore the whole family of mankind
to holiness and happiness.
Art. IH. We believe that holiness and true happiness are
inseparably connected, and that believers ought to be careful to
maintain order, and practice p^ood works ; for these things are
good and profitable unto men.
3. It shall determine the rules of its proceedings, and ordain
such laws and adopt such measures as may be necessary to
secu re the objects set forth in the Preamble of this Constitu-
tion-

4. It shall be tbe ultimate tribunal bj which shall be

Conventions and a Court of Final Appeal before which may be

provided for and settled by subordinate bodies.
5. It hliall hav<? power to adopt, such By-Laws as may be

Columbia, where no Conventions are organized, it shall exercise
the same jurisdiction as is exercised by State Conventions
where they exist.
7. It shall have power to raise funds, and to hold and
disburse whatever funds may be entrusted to its care : It being
provided that all moneys or other property given to constitute
its Permanent Funds shall be carefully invested, or held, and
the proceeds be sacredly devoted to tbe purposes designated by
tbe donors.
8. It shall have power to require all organizations and
clergymen subject to its jurisdiction to furnish such statistical,
or other, reports as its By-Laws or special action may prescribe,
in order that the condition and needs of the Church may be
understood, and that its work may be more efficiently devised.
Article IV. — Officers.
L The officers of this Convention shall be a President, a
Vice-President, a Secretary, a Treasurer, and a Board of
Trustees, all of whom shall be elected by ballot.
2. In all elections, a majority of votes shall be required to
elect ; and all officers shall continue in office until their succes-
sors shall be chosen and qualified.
3. The President and Vice-President shall be dected at
each regular Session.
4. The Secretary and Treasurer shall hold their offices
during the pleasure of the Convention, unless removed for
cause by the Board of Trustees.
< 5. The Board of Trustees shall consist of eleven members,

AND ALMANAC FOR 1872. 29
tlic second, four years ; and thereafter five members shall be
chosen biennially, to hold office four years.
6. The Board of Trustees shall have power to fill all
vacancies in the offices of the Convention, however occasioned,

an appropriation by the Convention.
Article V. — Sessions.
This Convention shall meet annually, on the third Tuesday
in September, at 10 o'clock, a. m., at such place as shall have
been appointed at the next preceding regular Session. If no
place has been thus appointed, the Board of Trustees shall
designate the place ; and they may also change time, or place,
whenever, in their judgment, a change is necessary.
Article VI. — Amendments.
This Constitution may be amended by a vote of two-thirds of
the members of the Convention, at any regular Session:
provided that the amendment shall be ratified at the next
regular Session by a similar vote.
By the Act of Incorporation it is empowered to " hold real
and personal estate to the value of Five Hundred Thousand
Dollars, to be devoted exclusively to the difiusion of Christian
knowledge, by means of missionaries, publications, and other
agencies."
It was proposed at the session held in Buffalo, New York, in
1869, to raise during the Centenary year, by voluntary contri-
butions, the sum of $200,000, to be called the Murray Centen-
ary Fund, to be permanently invested, the income to be
expended in aid of theological students, the distribution of
Denominational literature, and in Church extension.
The Treasurer of the Convention reported at the last session,
held in Philadelphia, September, 1871, that there had been
Digitized

placed (o (be credit of tbe Murray Ccutenarj Fund aboat
SI 1 C,000. Of that sum there were received from general
subscriptions about $68,000, from the Woman^a Centenary
Association about $33,000, and from the Mis:«ionary Boxes
about $15,000 ; subject to a debt of uncertain amount for
money borrowed to carry on the work of the Convention during
the years 1870-71.
Since the establishment by the Convention of Theolo;;ical
Scholarshipi!, thero has been expended in this department,
817,520. Of this sum there stands on record as free gifts,
$5,520. The balance of $12,000 is in the form of loans in
accordance with the present rules of the Board of Trustees.
Payment has been made by graduates to the amount of $350,
and the Treasurer holds notes at three years for $120. One
claim of $G0 has been canceled by vote of the Board, occxisioned
by the sickness and subsequent decease of the beneficiary. It
is intended to make the Scholarship Fund self- perpetuating,
and it is believed that the system now adopted will ensure the
repayment of the greater part of the loans. The Board has
granted, during the year, seven full, three conditional, one two-
year and two one -year Scholarships, and one special loan of
$60. The number of Scholarships now in force is thirty-one,
demanding an appropriation, for the year, of $5,580. The
deficiency of the Murray Fund, of about $84,000, and the
present indebtedness of the Convention of about $31,000,
making a total of some $115,000, is now the special work, and
will be considered, we trust, the pleasant, as well as bounden
duty of our people. We have a score or two of brethren able
to pay it at once, bat the benefit and blessedness of giving will
be more generally and evenly divided if those who can only
give a thousand, a hundred, ten, or five dollars shall share in the
contribution.

Note. — The foregoing scanty and imperfect memoranda were
furnished us by Rev. J. C. Burrus, and we are grateful for the
assistance he has rendered us in our work.
We have embodied in the Register^ under the appropriate
heads, all the matter he has furnished us, but the plan of oar
work does not allow of the printing of his communication in the
precise form in which it came to hand. We should be glad to
know, and to put on record, the number of members in all our
church organizations in Alabama and the other States of the
South, and hope to be able to do it in future issues of the
Register,
The most careless reader of these pages will see that the 199
church members reported for Alabama comprise only about half
of the whole number, for only 5 out of 9 churches have
reported their number. The probable number is about 360.
There are certainly three Church Edifices in Alabama which
are owned wholly by Universalists, viz., in Notasulga, Camp
Hill and Guntersville ; while there are Union Houses occupied
by us in Jackson, Marshall, Russell, Butler, Coffee, Dale and
Conecuh Counties, 8 in number.

reported), 4 Sanday Schools 3 of which have 117 members, 10
Church Edifices (two of which are reported worth $1,100)
and 11 preachers.
Note. — Rev. L. F. W. Andrews writes us : " My missionary
labors have been extended in Georgia, Alabama, Missoari,
Louisiana, Florida and Kansas. Two trips have been made*
and nearly six months devoted to the Cause in the extreme
West. The Missionary field is white already to the harvest^
but the laborers few. We have a church (edifice) at Ebenezer,
Morgan County, belonging to a lay brother, John Durden,
where a Sunday School is regularly kept up by him and his
daughters. There is no Church organization there, but
occasional preaching. Near Senoia, (Coweta County), we have
an old Church organization over which Rev. B. F. Strain
presides. I know not the number of its members or its con-
dition. Brother J. C. Kendrick preaches in Dooly, Sumter,
Stewart, Schley, and other Counties in North-west Georgia to
good acceptance. Brother Kendrick is aged, but a vigorous
and most earnest evangelist. His influence is great and good.
Brother Y. Corley is a local preacher, living near Alford's
Chapel, (Merriwether County), where we have a Church
organization, under the pastoral care of Brother B. F. Strain,
and a Sabbath School under the charge of Brother Corley,
Brother Daniel Brewer of Gordon, (Wilkinson County),
preaches regularly in his neighborhood, and is a wonhy
brother. Brother J. A. Rhyne, of Pine Log, (Cherokee
County), is still laboring, but I do not know the condition of
the Cause in his section of the State. Brother M. B. Picket^
of Sumter County, and Brother F. K. Lewis, of Dooly County,
do not now exercise their ministerial gifls
Of the general state of the Cause I can speak fatorably, so
far as public interest and attention is concerned. Large

congregations usaally attend on oar meetings when notice has
been proper! j circulated and the weather permits. The ordi-
nances of water baptism, (always by immersion), and the Lord's
Supper, are observed, and such observance has had a most
excellent effect to allay prejudice and make room for better
impressions and influences.
The Church South, needs assistance. The preaebeis
are few, old and poor (in this world's goods), and the people are
financially in a low condition. But I am persuaded that a few
thousand dollars judiciously expended by the Greneral Con-
vention in building up Churches in Atlanta, Macon, Savannah,'
Augusta and Columbus, would soon revolutionize the State
theologically.''

The Church Edifice is worth about $600.
TENHESSEE.
The only preacher of our Faith in the State is Bro. Thomas
Childs of Craighead, who is 75 years of age, was never
ordained, and preaches only occasionally. He was in his early

Texas is only a missionary field. But one organized church
is reported, which is located in Sand Fly, (Bastrop County),
with 50 members, organized August 12, 1855, and worshiping in
a Free Meeting House owned by the Baptists. Here Rev. M. '

This College is located at Logansport, Indiana, and is named
in honor of Joshua Smithson, of Vevay, in said State, who at
his death, in June, 1867, lefl two-thirds of his estate in trust
for founding a school in Indiana, to be under the control of the
Universalist Denomination. To this bequest his widow, Mrs.
Sarah Smithson, has added by the donation of all her own
estate, amounting to several thousand dollars. Logansport, the
scat of Smithson College, is a city of twelve thousand
inhabitants, at the junction of Eel River with the Wabash, on
the Chicago and Cincinnati, Columbus and Burlington, and
Toledo and St. Louis routes of travel, and seventy miles north
of Indianapolis. It was selected as the site for the Collie,
because, in addition to iu other great advantages, Mrs. Eliza-
beth Pollard donated $20,000, and other citizens $15,000, to
secure its location there.
The grounds of the College, situated on the north side of the

Wabash river, contain twelve acres, now partly covered with
forest trees. The site of the buildings is 150 feet above the
river, and commands a view of the city and of the Wabash
valley for miles, furnishing landscape views of great beauty.
The College Edifice is to be 340 feet in extreme length, and
120 feet in its greatest depth, of irregular outline, with a noble
tower and numerous pavilions, giving unusual grandeur to its
general appearance. On four floors the corridors extend
through the building, furnishing promenades 300 feet lon[>

of egress. The central building, 144 feet long, arranged for
80 boarders, will be ready for occupancy and the institution
opened for students of both sexes, on the 4th of January, 1872.

cost of the whole, when completed^ readj for occupancy, about
$125,000.
It stands on the highest point of land in Ohio, on a most
beautiful site overlooking the surrounding country for miles.
It is within the city limits, about ^ve minutes' walk from the
Railroad Station. The Corporation owns about six acres of
land, worth about $20,000. It is the design of the Trustees to
push the work on the Building so as to open the School in
September, 1872. For this purpose $25,000 more will have
to be raised, and doubtless will be raised, as the Universalists
of Ohio and Western Pennsylvania intend to stand by Mr.
Buchtel in this great and noble enterprise.

ORLEANS LIBERAL INSTITUTE.
This School is located in Glover, (Orlsans Co.) Vermont.
It is hut slenderly endowed, and the school edifice is partly the
property of Trustees and partly owned by the School district
in which it is situated. It has done the best it could in the past
with the means at its command, and has shared the fate of all
moneyless institutions.
It has two terms in a year, viz. : Spring and Fall. The
attendance varies from 50 to 75 per term.
It is now under the charge of Mr. Albert B. Ruggles.

This Institution is located in Jefferson, the Shire town of
Jefferson Co., Wisconsin, and 117 miles from Chicago. It was
incorporated April 12, 1866. and is under the patronage and
control of the Wisconsin Convention of Universalists. It was
organized and a school first opened in 1867, under the charge
of Rev. B. F. Rogers. Being without a School building, he
first gathered his pupils in the Meeting House, and for a while,
in the Court House. For the establishment and early success
of this School} much credit is due to the persevering and

Ciithful labors of Brother Rogers. A School Buflding of
brick, 150 bj 50 feet on the ground, and 4 stories high, has been
erected, and it is said to be the finest structure in the State. The
building has cost about $30,000, on which there rests a debt,
indadhig interest, of $12,000.
' Earnest efforts are nbw being made, and the most encouraging
assurances given bj the friends of our cause in all parts of the
State, for the speedy completion, equipment and endowment of
this School. The resources of the people have but just begun
to be developed. Mr. John G. Putnam, of Neosho, has pledged
$10,000 for an endowment, provided the mortgage on the
property is paid off*; and Mr. J. I. Case of Racine offers to
pay $5,000, provided the other $5,000 is paid at once. Rev.
James Eastwood, Financial Agent, in connection with Rev. E.
Garfieldy will press the work along so that the friends of the
Institute may soon expect to see it out of debt, and $10,000
lecured to the permanent fund.

mention has been made, the Academy has funds invested of not
less than $60,000.

MITCHELL SEMINARY.
This projected Institution is located in the thriviDg village of
Mitchelville, (Polk Co.) Iowa. It was incorporated in Feb-
ruary, 1871, under a Board of Trustees elected hj the Uni-
versalist Convention of Iowa, at a special session thereof, held
in December, 1870. It is named in honor of Hon. Thomas
Mitchell, the founder of the town, who donated lands in and
around Mitchelville, to the amount of one hundred and thirtj
acres, in business and residence lots, estimated to be worth from
$20,000 to $30,000. He also gave, jointly with Rev. J. R
Sage, of the same place, twenty acres for the site of the School,
in an eligible location, near the village, which was valued at
$2,000. The land donated by Mr. Mitchell is now being sold
for building lots, as rapidly as the growth of the town demands,
and it is proposed to canvass the State vigorously for fund:<, and
to begin the erection of the school building early in the Spring
of 1872. The Trustees confidently expect to be able to open
a first-class Seminary, complete in all its appointments, in Octo.
ber of the present year.
Mitchelville is centrally and beautifully located on the
Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific Railroad, 18 miles east of
Des Moines. It has also the advantage of a station on the

114 UNIYEBSALIST BEGISTEB
THE UNIVERSALIST HISTORICAL
SOCIETY.
The objects of this Society are ** to collect and preserve facts
pertainiDg the the history and condition of the doctrine of Uni-
Tersalism, together with books and papers having reference to
the same subject," It was organized in 1834. The late Dr.
Ballon was its first President Rev. T. J. Sawyer, D.D., has
been its Secretary and Librarian from the time of its organi-
cation. In its list of members are embraced the names of most
of our active ministers, and (nany of our prominent laymen of
a quarter of a century n(;o. For several years annual meetings
were held at the time of the United States Convention, but as
the business of that body increased it was found more and more
difiicuU to get time and opportunity even for a brief and
unimportant session of the Historical Society, and for a number
of years past they have been omitted altogether. As the
Society was organized without requiring any fees, annual or
initiatory, of its members, so it was dependent for funds on a
collection taken up at some one of the public services of the
Convention. The aggregate of these collections and a very
few subscriptions from interested friends, amounting in all to
less than $1,000, has been expended in books.
The Library, now at Tufts College, consists of between 1,200
and 1,500 volumes, and is in its character quite unique, bui as
yet very imperfect. A large part of the books have been
picked up at book auctions and in second-hand book stores, or
imported from such stores abroad. Of its value, even in its
present imperfect state, some estimate may be formed by
a -reference to Dr. T. Whittemore's second edition of his
Digitized

AND ALMANAC FOR 1872. 115
Modem History of UnweraalUm^ (which was dedicated to Rev.
Dr. Sawyer, the Secretary of the Historical Society), in which
Dr. Whittemore justly says : " To you more than to any other
man am I indebted for aid in the preparation of the Modem
History of Universalism. Very soon after you entered the
ministry you began to show a strong interest in the matter, and
from that time until the present you have been more or less
engaged in promoting it. In the German department your
labors have been very valuable, and, in fact they have been so in
all departments. . . The effects of your labors will be seen
in this work all along.'' There is scarcely a chapter in this
edition of Dr. Whittemore's valuable work which has not been
enriched from the Historical Library. It is every way desir-
able that this Society should be resuscitated, and that ample
means should be provided for rendering the Library as com-
plete as possible. We earnestly commend to our men of means,
when settling their estates, and selecting objects of charity or
channels for their beneficence, the claims of the Universalist
Historical Society, as well entitled to a favorable consideration*

OBITUARY NOTICES.
It is with a sad heart that we enter upon this part of oar
annual record, for the shafts of the destroying angel have been
flying ihick and fast, and the losses to our ministry by death
during the year have been unprecedentedly large. Twenty-two
of our ministers, at least, have passed away from their earthly
labors since the close of our last year's record, which is twice
as many as the year before.
We regret that our notices in some instances are so scanty
and inadequate, but we have sought in vain for fuller informa-
tion. We hope to make this part of our Begitter at once just
to the dead and satisfactory to the living. Several hands have
helped us to the materials for the following Notices, and, while
grateful for the assistance rendered us, we crave indulgence f<»r
any defects that may be detected by the friends of the deceased.
We have striven, at a»y rate, to be faithful chiyniders of our
departed soldiers, having scrupulously followed the maxim we
learned long ago, viz : '*In speaking of the dead, so fold up
your discourse that their virtues may outwardly appear while
their faults are wrapped up in silence."

New York, where his mother died April 3, 1871, in the 88rd
year of her age. Yonng Baoon attended the Clinton Liberal
Institute during the Fall terms of 1887 and 1838. Early in
1839 he migrated to Harrison County, Ky., where he engaged
in teaching school until the Spring of 1842, when he returned
to New York, and in May was married to Miss Jane Jenkins,
of Prospect, Oneida County. lie commenced preaching soon
after, and, in the Spring of 1843, returned to Harrison County,
Ky., where he was engaged in teaching and preaching for
nearly two years. He received a Letter of Fellowship, August
31, 1844, which was the same as ordination then, but from
what ecclesiastical body does not appear. From Harrison Co.,
Ky., he removed to Rutland, Ohio, and thence to Mount
Healthy, Ohio, where he spent several years in preaching within
the bounds of the Miami Association. In 1851 he removed to
Hamilton, Ohio, and superintended the building of a Uni versalist
Meeting House there. In April, 1853 he left Ohio and settled
in Pittsburg, Pa., where no minister of our Faith had lifted up
his voice for ^any years. Here he g%thered a Church, and
to his zeal and energy are our friends in Pittsburg largely
indebted for whatever strength and prosperity our cause now
has in that city.
In April, 1870, when journeying to an appointment in W.
Virginia, he was suddenly prc^strated, and from this sickness he
never recovered. During the July following he spent two
weeks under the roof of his brother. Rev. W, S. Bacon. He
hoped to meet once more with his brothers and sisters at the
old homestead, but failing health deprived him of the privilege.
He started on the 27th of September for the far West, in hope
of finding relief, and reached Trinidad about the middle of
November. In the last letter received from him, dated Decem-
ber 17th, 1870, he stated that his health was greatly improved.
But the impn»vement was only temporary. On the 10th of

REV. EVAN MILES.
This brother departed this life at the residence of his son,
in Fulton, Wisconsin, January 13, 1871, in the ninety-third
year of his age. He was a native of Virginia, removing to
Kentucky at the age of twenty-two years, and $:om thence, at
the age of thirty-eighj;, to Indiana, where he lived thirty-five
years, removing in 1851, with his son, to Bock County, Wis.
He was a man of remarkable bodily and mental vigor. His
habits through life were good, and even tobacco, to the use of
which he was formerly accustomed, he was enabled by his
strong will to discard entirely, many years ago. Theology and
the Bible were the themes on which he delighted to dwell. In
1846, while residing in Indiana, he was licensed to preach the
Gospel, and was in fellowship as a Universalist preacher until
his removal to Wisconsin. He remained firm in his religious
faith to the last. He was a good and just man, and shared
largely in the confidence of the community. Those who had
known him for many years testify to his integrity and christian
character. His aged widow survives him.

Umi Mr. Hobbs had suffered from ill health for years, much of
the time being confined to his bed, and that he passed away
from this life on Monday, January 16, 1871, at Lee Centre^
(Oneida County) N. Y., being about fifty years of age. He
went to Lee Centre about four years before, and officiated as
pastor there until he was compelled by failing health to give
up hid charge. He had been for years a great and a patient
sufferer. He leaves a wife and several children, who did all
that was possible to make his days pass comfortably. The
Universalists and other citiaens of Lee are also to be remem-
bered for their kind and fiuthful services to the soffsring man.
His remains were interred at Auburn, N. Y.
He was a good man, of noble impulses, and of a kind and
amiable disposition, as all those testify who have known him
intimately. It is to be mentioned to his credit that he bore his
protracted sufferings with the most exemplaxy patience and
fortitude.

Mr. Gamage was bom in Boston, Mass., March 1, 1818, and
was the son of William and Julia (Babcock) Gamage, both of
whom died while he was but an infant When a young man
he became a member of the okl Warren Street Universalist
Society, a teacher in the Sunday School and an active partici-
pant in the Conference Meeting. He entered the ministry of
Reconciliation in 1845, after having been for some time under
the tuition of Rev. Samuel P. Skinner, then of Newton Upper
Falls, Mass. During that period we often met him and retain
a very favorable impression of his kindly disposition, his gentle-
manly manners, his deep interest in the work of the ministiy,
and his devotion to his sacred calling. He was married Apiil

8, 1848, to Miss Eliza J. Hajs, at Bethel, (Morgan County)
III., who, with one daughter, survives him. He was ordained
in 1849. He has been located as a preacher in Waukegan,
Girard, Barry, Hovey's Point and some other places in Illinois.
His work was, in the main, that of a pioneer, and he performed
a large amount of work for very little pay.
He commanded the respect and esteem of all who knew him,
and even his religious opposers freely acknowledged his chris-
tian virtues and gentlemanly bearing towards all with whom he
had to do. He was extremely diffident in his manner, and
hardly passed for what he was worth. He was a very close
studen^and a good writer. In consequence of the meagre sup-
port given him by the societies to which he ministered, be was
compelled to devote a portion of his time to teaching school,
which he did with great credit to himself and to the satisfaction
of his patrons. And such were bis diligence, economy, and
careful and conscientious management of his affairs that be left
bis family in comfortable pecuniary circumstances. As a hus-
band and father be was all that could be desired. He died at
Girard, Bl., February 12ih, 1871, of paralysis of the throat,
having almost completed the fifty-third year of his age. His
funeral was said to be the largest ever held in the town. He
was an unpretending, thoughtful, earnest, faithful minister of
the Gospel through all the years of hi* acliv^ life, willing to
labor in any field, however small and humble, in the service of
bis Divine Master, always commanding the respect of every
community in which he made his abode, ever honoring and
strengthening our cause, and exemplifying the religion of Jesus
Christ by his preaching and his life. One who knew him weli
says of him : "I have known him intimately for twenty years,
and can truly say that he was one of the purest men it was evei
my good fortune to know."

BEY. WILLIAM BELL.
Father Bell, — as we have long been accusComed to call him,—
was bom in Windsor, Vermont, June 16th, 1791. He died in
Boston, Massachusetts, April 20, 1871, having nearly completed
his 80th year. His father. Rev. Benjamin Bell, was a Congre-
gational clergyman, a graduate of Yale College, and a Cahinist
of the straitest sect, in which faith the son was educated,
though he never fully embraced it. For some years he was
vacillating between Calvinism and mere Deism, until the light
of a better faith broke upon his mind. His mother, it is said,
though a member of his fatber*s church, had a loving and gentle
nature upon which the harsher features of the creed sat rather
loosely ; and from her, rather than from his father, the eon inher-
ited those cheerful, trustful traits which were so conspicuous in
his character. In 1797 the family removed to South Hampton,
N. H., where William received the rudiments of hb education.

Subsequently be attended scbool at East Kingston and Concord,
N. H., and at Newburyport, Mass. At one time be was sent
to board in the family of Rev. Peter Sanborn, of Reading Mass.,
a stern old gentleman, who maintained a severe discipline in his
&mily, and held a very tight rein over the children placed under
his charge. In 1803, when William was in his I2th year, he
lost his mother, and was soon afler apprenticed to the printing
business, with a Mr. Hough, of Concord, N. H. In 1806 he
lefl the printing office and learned the silver-plating business.
In March, 1813, he was married to Miss Elizabeth Dow, of
Gilmanton, N. H., who yet survives* Soon after his marriage,
daring the war with England, he enlisted in the service of his
country and hastened to the frontier to repel invasion, though
be was never, we believe, in any actual engagement.
In the spring of 1818 he removed to Charlestown, Mass^ and
during that year, under the preaching of Rev. Edward Turner,
became a convert to Universalism. In 1820 he removed to
Cambridgeport, Mass., and was one of the first members of the
Universalist church there. After spending some time nnder the
instruction of Rev. Hosea Ballon, he began to preach, in the
winter of 1824, in Haverhill, Mass. He was fellowshiped by
the Southern Association, and ordained, in company with
Massena B. Ballon, in 1825, at the General Convention, in
Hartland, Yt^ He spent the first ten years of his ministry in
Salem and Washington, N. H., and Springfield and Woodstock,
Vt. During this period he edited and published five volumes
of the ^ Watchman and Christian Repository.'^ From Wood-
stock he removed to Lansinburg, N. Y., thence to Bennington,
Yt., thence to Milford, Mass. ; in all which places he labored
earnestly and successfully in the cause of his Master. From
Milford he removed to Lowell, where for a time he resumed
his editorial labors, publishing the ^ Star of BethUhem" In
1849 he removed to Boston, where, with the exception of three

yean spent in Charlestowny he remained until hia death. Here
amongst his children and grand-children, shielded firom want
and care, he spent in dignified retirement the evening of life,
honored and beloTed hj all. God dealt very kindlj with him.
Although his locks had become white as snow manj years ago,
his cheeks were ruddy with health, his step was elastic, and his
strength almost to the very last unabated.
After retiring from all pastoral labor he retained his lore for
the truth and his interest in the church to which he belonged,
and as his custom had been for many years so even till near the
close of his pilgrimage he continued to travel abroad over New
England as occasion called and preach the glad tidings of the
Kingdom of God. Even down to his 78th year he was thus
accustomed to preach and with a vigor quite unusual to a man
of his years. One of the last occasions of lifting up his voice in
public was at the great Centennial meeting at Gloucester. At
intervals also, for special purposes, he resumed his old and well-
used pen, as on the publication of Rev. H. W. Beecher's famous
sermon on " Future Punishment." He wrote Mr. Beecher a
letter on the subject, which we have reason to believe Mr.
Beecher read, whether it had any influence in strengthening
that great man's evident and growing tendency to free himself
altogether from the trammels of that horrible dogma or not.
Father Bell will hardly be remembered as one of our great
men either in respect to his natural endowments or his acquire-
ments ; but, considering his circumstances in early life, he was
a man of honorable attainments, . of Mr culture, and better
than all of a sound mind, of eminent goodness of heart, aif
amiable disposition, strong faith and decided religious feeling.
From the time he entered the ministry until he laid his well-
worn armor down, he diligently labored to build up the church
to which he belonged as a compact and efficient organization,
because it embodied the truth as it is in Jesus. All honor to

REV. W. A. P. DILLINGHAM.
William Addison Pitt Dillingham was bom in Hallowell^
Maine, September 4, 1824. * His mother dying when he was
but four, and his father when he was but six years old, he and a
younger sister entered the family of his father's eldest brother,
Joseph Pitt Dillingham, a merchant of Augusta, where he found
a home until manhood. His early life was . remarkable for its
purity. The evil habits of his young associates never seemed
to have any influence over him. He was distinguished even in
youth for the same noble and generous impulses and the same
conscientiousness and truthfulness which characterized him in
after years. He pursued his studies in the public schools of
Augusta, fitted for College, and in the autumn of 1842 entered
Waterville College. He remained there, however, but for a
single term, when he left, — it is said, on account of the close
sectarian atmosphere then prevalent in the College, which he
felt to be insupportable, — and went to Cambridge with the
intention of entering the Law School ; but his interest in theo-
logical studies and his strong religious feelings finally decided
him to enter the Divinity School, from which he was in due
time graduated. He was ordained in 1847, and first settled as
a minister in Augusta among those with whom his early life
was spent and where his character and qualifications for the
Christian ministry must have been well known. No higher
honor can be conferred on a young clergyman than a call to
settle at home. He was married during his first settlement in
Augusta, to Miss Caroline Townsend, of Sidney, Me., a woman
Digitized by VjOOQ IC
184 UNIYEBSAUST BEGI8TEB
worthy of him and who departed this life about six months
before him. From Augusta he removed to Dover, Me« ; then
to Portsmouth, N. H., then to Norridgewock, Me., then back to
Augusta for a second pastoral settlement, thence he removed to
a farm he had purchased in Sidney, Me., then to Waterville,
Me. ; in all these places preaching the Grospel with ability,
fidelity and success.
In the year 1867, while living in Waterville, he withdrew
his formal connection with our denomination and joined the
Swedenborgians, towards whose general views he had long been
known to lean. In their connection he preached more or lei^
for two or three years in various places, and last to a congrega-
tion of that faith in Chicago. But be was not at home in the
New Jerusalem church, as it is called, nor did he find in it what
be sought That was not the church to which by nature or
culture he belonged, and he sought and found, with great joy,
fellowship and a home in the church of his early hopes and
labors.
In April, 1870, he decided to resume his ecclesiastical rela-
tions with Universalists, from whom he had never been aliena-
ted in spirit, and united with St. Paul's church in Chicago, and
at the same time addressed a letter to his friend. Rev. C. B.
Moor, of Augusta, Me., in which he unfolded his mental strug-
gles, the travail of his soul and bis plans and purposes for the
future. This letter is characteristic of the man, frank, cordial,
generous, full of kindly feeling, breathing the most fervent piet j
and the sweetest charity. It is equally creditable to him and
to the Universalist Denomination in which he began and ended
his ministry. In it he gives his reasons for thinking he should
^ be happier " and " more useful " among us than among any
other Christian people. We quote a few sentences, to show
how a good man, with a peculiar intellectual constitution and of
a visionary and speculative turn of mind, could drift out of our
ranks for a while, and then voluntarily return to his first love,

AND ALMANAC FOR 1B72. IBS
without any fundamental change of faith and without losing the
respect and esteem of his old associates ; thus demonstrating
the freedom and liberality of our ecclesiastical body.
Brother Dillingham said, in the letter referred to : "We have
been separated denominationally for a few years, but never
separated in affection, in our desire for the heavenly life, nor in
the offices of Christian charity, nor in respect for each other's con-
victions, nor in fundamental Christian doctrine * * *. If I should
never preach again as a settled pastor, in private, secluded life,
let it be my pleasure and honor to be called once more a Uni-
versalist, only let me live * nearer my God to Thee,' — as the
Father in Heaven, who, in the dispensation of the fullness of
time will gather together all things in One, even in Christ, the
Lamb of God who taketh away the sin of the world. * * ♦
Words from the surface of my mind, at times, may have
expressed doubts about the future state of those who go into the
invisible realm without furnishing evidence of regeneration
commenced ; but in the depth of my rational convictions and of
my inmost soul, the faith of the great apostle that the Lord
Jesus Christ shall reign till all things are subdued unto him
that God may be all in all — this faith has been the underlying
basis of every sweet and holy experience in the divine life,
like an immovable rock, sometimes submerged, but always there.
I never preached the eternity of the hells nor any doctrine
inconsistent with the divine benevolence, and I never heard
Universalism or Unwersalists attacked or spoken of in derog-
atory terms as to their moral influence by some New Church
people, without patting in a square defence of those whom I
knew only to respect, and who had treated me with considera-
tion beyond ray deserts. And yet I acted honestly when I
united with the New Church. I desired to find a people more
spiritual than I was myself, than my old associates were, and I
did think . or hope to find greener fields, purer waters, more
heavenly mannai than I had known as a Universalist « « *

But better people, more conscientious, or more spiritual, or

While Mr. Dillingham lived in Waterville he entered the
•trena of politics, and for two years (1864 and 1865) he repre-
sented the town in the Legislature, for the latter year being
Speaker of the House of Representatives. He was a Trustee
of the Agricultural College of Maine. At one time also he held
an appointment as Financial Agent of the general government
of the United States. In all these positions of honor and
responsibility, he was always honest and faithful in the discharge
of all his duties. *' Nothing approaching a suspicion to the
contrary was ever breathed against him," (says Rev. C. R.
Moor, in the funeral address from which we have largely quoted),
^ and the amount of secular business which he had on his hands
at different times, would have thoroughly secularized many of
those clergymen who do not now seem to know the actual
meaning of the word business, had the same rested on thetn.
Ah, it would have secularized hvn, but for^ the natural drift of
his religious feelings and his habits of religious meditation and
devotion. These kept the fires of religious life buniing at the
centre of his being in no ordinary degree. He was uncommon-
ly reverent even for a clei^man of any church. His piety
was spontaneous, warm, gushing, oflen overflowing. If those
who appreciated and loved him best, regretted any of the
changes and seeming inconsistencies of his life, no person who
had the least right to judge him, by virtue of any knowledge of

his character, ever,' for a moment doubted his sinceritj or ques-
tioned his honesty of purpose."
' As preacher and pastor Mr. Dillingham endeared himself
to many hearts. He impressed his hearers with the idea of his
perfect sincerity. He was emotional in a very large measure.
Few men were ever more, or as gifVed in prayer. Few men
ever had better qualities for a public speaker. With a tall,
dignified, imposing presence, and a voice of extraordinary com-
pass, richness and power, his speech was impressive and effec-
tive.
He had returned to his former home and farm in Sidney, Me.,
and bad engaged to preach once on each Sabbath in that town,
and also in the adjacent village of West Waterville, and was
entering with great ardor and energy into the religious work
before him, when he was suddenly stricken down with acute
pneumonia. When told on the morning of the day on which he
died (April 22, 1871) that he must pass away, he looked up
with one of his sweetest smiles and inquired : '^ How long will
it be before the change comes ?*' When told that it would come
in a few hours, he smiled again, and replied, ^^So very soon f*
Not long afler he asked: ''Who will take care of the Cause?"
"What cause ?" said one of the sons. **The Cause of Univer-
salism here," he replied. And then he breathed his life back
to him who gave it
Thus he ended his mortal career in the 47th year of his age,
and in the meridian of his strength, leaving two sons and a
daughter, by whom and by many, many more his memory will
be kept green ; and the influence of. his life will remain among
the active forces which shall at last triumph over all evil.

REV. G. C. LEMON.
Mr. Lemon was the son of Matthias Lemon, and was born in
Genesee, (Livingston Co.) N. Y., March 3, 1803. He be-
came a Universalist in sentiment early in life. In 1817 he moved
to Washinjijton County, Indiana. In 182 G he was married to Miss
Anna Lewis, who died in Muncie., Ind., in 1861 or 1862- In
1833 Mr. Lemon became so awakened upon the subject of
religion as to make a public profession of his faith, and take an
active part in conference and prayer-meetings whenever an
opportunity offered. There were no Universalist organiza-
tions at that time in the part of the State in which he lived.
Some time in 1835 he commenced preaching the Gospel of
Impartial Grace, in the midst of strong opposition, being
encouraged and assisted by Abiram Stacy, a convert about that
time from the " United Brethren," and received fellowship as a
Universalist minister at the organization of the White River
Association, in Indiana, in 1842, and subsequently from the
Illinois Convention. In 1848 he removed to Peoria, Ilk, and
spent the winter, and the next season settled at Metamoni, III,
where he resided at the time of his death, which occurred
April 27, 1871.
In the Fall of 1849 he commenced preaching in Pekin, III,
one-fourth of the time, and continued to do so for three years-
Under his ministry a Society was organized, and eventually a
Meeting House was built* at that place. He continued to
preach until within two years of his death, when be was pre-
vented from doing so by disease and the infirmities of age.
He received no stated salary for his labors, and supported his
family mainly by his practice as a physician. He loved the
faith he preached, and gave evidence to all that he was deeply
interested in the prosperity of our Saviour's cause and kingdom

REV. JOHN DORE.
Mr. Dore died at "West Parsonsfield, Maine, Tuesday, April
28, 1871, of typhoid fever, after a sickness of only about ten
days. He was about 58 years of age.
"We have been able to gather but few particulars of his early
life. We om\y know that he was formerly a Free Will Baptist
preacher, and that he joined our Denomination in the year
1842. In the year 1868 he removed from Mechanic Falls,
where he had for some time been living and engaged in secular
business, to Parsonsfield, for the purpose of giving his whole
time and attention to the work of the Gospel ministry in which
his heart delighted. He soon organized a Society thern, con-
sisting of residents of Parsonsfield, (Me.) and Effingham,
TN. H.), which in due time erected a substantial and commo-
dious House of worship. FJe had an appointment to preach,
April 30, in Hiram, where a congregation assembled to hear
him; but he did not appear, and the congregation dispersed
without having even heard of Mr. Dore's sickness. It was, in
fact, the very day of his funeral, but the sad news of his
departure did not reach them until after all that was mortal of
the preacher was buried up in the ground. He was not an
educated man, but he was a Bible Christian, and eminently
useful in the sphere he occupied.
His funeral took place on Sunday, April 80, at the Univer-
saiist Meeting House, in West Parsonsfield, Me., ondcr peculiar

our faith was present. Rev. Z^ Thompson, engaged to preadi
on the occasion, failed to reach the place through a fiadlare of
the railroad trains to make connection, and Mr: Dore was buried
with Masonic honors, (being a member of that Order), Rev. C.
E. Moore, Baptist, of Effingham, N. H., pronouncing a eulogy,
in the course of which he said, no greater tribute could be
paid to the memory of any man than he was pleased to pay to
that of the departed, — that he was a man that stood for the
right regardless of consequences. After appropriate Masonic
services, Mr. Dore's remains were deposited in their resting-
^lace in the rear of the Meeting House, and the Lodge
('< Charter Oak"), with slow and solemn step retired; but
before closing took up a contribution to defray the funeral
expenses, after paying which there remained a balance of over
$^ for the benefit of the widow of the deceased brother. The
Lodge also passed resolutions relative to Mr. I>ore*3 decease,
one of which is as foltows : ^^ Resolved, That in this dbpensation,
Bociety has lost an honest and exemplary member, his family a
devoted heart, Masonry a firm supporter, and Christianity an
earnest and zealous advocate."

REV. C. F. JAT.
Mr. Jay was a resident of Rusk, (Cherokee Co.) Texas.
He was taken ill on the dd of April, 1871, and lingered with
a slow fever on til the 5 th of May following, when he passed
away from earth, rejoicing in the hope of a world's salvation.
He was ordained in 1858 by the Alabama Convention.
At the time of his death he was about seventy years old and
has left a good name as a most precious legacy to his family.

His wife, in communicating the intelligence of Lis death,
remarks, that "he often rejoiced while contemplating the
glory of God, and said he was not like those who say all is
dark, dark, dark; for all was light with him as he drew
nearer and nearer the border of the spirit land."
We regret that we hare been unable to obtain any further
particulars of this aged preacher.

BEV; THOMAS JOHNSON CARNEY.
He was a man of strong convictions, and an earnest defender
of the faith he had embraced. He consecrated himself to the
work of the Christian ministry with singleness of heart and
purpose, and was devoted, faithful and reliable. He was sym-
pathizing and kind, courteous and dignified in his bearing, and
made many friends, who hold iiim in affectionate and lasting
remembrance. He was born in Dresden, Me., June 10, 1818.
Early in life he was deprived of his mother's care by her death,
and thereby suffered a loss which he always deeply felt. He
was taught the doctrines of Universalism by his father, tTames
Carney, who was a staunch Universalist, and whose house was
regarded as a "minister's home." Rev. S. Cobb was the first
Universalist preacher to whom young Thomas listened. His
attention was turned to the Universalist minis^try, as the employ-
ment of his life, by Rev. W. C. George, who was at one time
settled in Dresden. In 1838, when about twenty years old,
that he might, — as he says in his journal, — ^**see the country and
gain information," he made a western tour, visiting Boaton,
Providence, New York, Philadelphia and Cincinnati.
This journey, as taken by him, was in some instances peril-
ous ; but as he was wary, temperate in his habits, and veiy

nsefuL From 1840 to 1844, he resided io Sooth Carolina,
engaged for a time as a private tator with a planter in Beaofort,
and, afterwards, keeping a select school in Charieston. In that
citj, in the summer of 1844, he was attacked with the malig-
nant fever of the country, the resaU of exposure daring a visit
into the rural district. From the effects of that illness he never
fully recovered. His experiences of the sick bed and in )ns
near approach to death strengthened him in his early purpose
to become a minister of the GospeL To improve his health
he spent a year travelling in Georgia, Louisiana and other
Southern States, returning to Maine in the autumn of 184o.
The change of climate, and his grief occasioned by the death
of a beloved brother affected his health and spirits for a time,
unfitted him for study, and delayed him in his work of special
preparation for the ministry. In March, 1846^ he made a trip
to the West Indies. He returned in June, and studied theo-
logy' with Rev. J. P. Weston, then located in Gardiner, Maine.
In the pulpit of the Universallst Meeting House in Gardiner
he preached his first sermon. He afterwards spent a little
time with his old pastor. Rev. W. C. George, then residing in
St. Stephen, N.B., and preached in Pembroke, Me., from June
to October, 1847. Thenoe he went to PhiUidelphia, received
a Letter of Fellowship from the Pennsylvania State Conven-
tion, Maj dd, 1848, and was ordained as pastor of the Ken-
sington Society, in Philadelphia, June 4, of the same year.
On that occasion Revs. Otis A. Skinner, Charles Spear, T. J.
Greenwood and A. C. Thomas ofiiciated; and original hjmns
were furnished by Miss Julia A. Fletcher, afterwards his wife.
He remained with this society one year. He was married
May 1st, 1849, to Miss Fletcher, in the Warren Street
Church, Boston, by Rev. O. A. Skinner. In the folk>wing
year he ministered to four Societies in Maine, preaching in
Livermore, Leeds, Wayne, and at Livermore Falls. In 1850,

hoping to improve his health bj a change of climate, he settled
in Cooperstown, N. Y. In pursuit of the same object, on the
first of May, 1851, just twenty years before receiving the
injury which caused his death, he crossed the State of Michi-
gan, moving westward. Much of his labor in the West was of
a missionary character. He was settled in Beloit, Wis., and
in Sycamore and Franklin Grove, 111. For nearly fifteen of
the last years of his life his family resided in Galesburg, IIL,
while he preached, as opportunity ofi*ered, in various places, but
especially fulfilling a successful ministry in Macomb, Yates
City, and in a circuit in Southern Illinois, embracing New
Salem, "Barr's Store," Apple Creek Prairie and Whitehall
In 1859-60 he was State Missionary in Missouri, extending
his labors into Kansas. In the winter of 1864-65 he made a
journey to New Mexico, staying awhile in Santa Fe, and
reaching St. Louis on his return. May 1st. His last mini3trj
was in Southern Illinois. He was fatally injured by a fall from
his horse, May 1st, 1871, at Bluffdale. He soon became
unconscious, and died on Thursday, May 4. He was buried
with Masonic services, honored by the attendance of a vast
multitude who knew him in life and grieved at his sudden
departure. An appropriate sermon was preached by his sym-
pathizing friend and brother. Rev. John Hughes, of Table
Grove, IIL
As the result of his ministry, believers have been multiplied,
numerous societies formed and strengthened, and four Church
Edifices stand as enduring monuments of his efficiency* and
faithfulness. He leaves a wife, four sons and one daughter to
mourn his loss. Of the family, Mrs. Carney, — ^now residing in
Whitehall, 111., — writes : " Of his nine children, four have pre-
ceded him to heaven and five are left to do life's work below.
It had been his wish to educate them all at Lombard ITniver-
Bity. We trust this wish will yet be carried out."

BBV. W. B. COOK.
This faithful and devoted servant of Christ died in Muskegon,
Michi<;an, June 5, 1871, in the sixty-first year of his age- He
was bom in Marcellus, (Onondaga Co.) N. Y., December 8,
1810. He entered the ministry in 1843, and was ordained in
1846. From his first entrance into the ministry to the year of
his d«ath he consecrated all his energies to his sacred calling.
Among the places where he preached statedly at difiTerent times
were Mottville, Alexander, Lockport, Gaines, Churchville, New-
burg, and Aurora, in the State of New York. In 1866 he
went to Michigan and remained there until his death. In all
places where he preached he left the odor of a good name. In
the controversies in which he was sometimes engaged with the
enemies of Universalism he ever exhibited the manners of a
gentleman and the spirit of a Christian. He contended
earnestly for the faith, but from a love of truth rather than the
pleasure of victory. lie sought to live peacably with all men.
He was neither th« victim of envy nor of pride. He appre-
ciated talents superior to his own, but despised not the humblest
effort. His last sickness was painful and protracted, yet no
complaint or murmur escaped his lips, no irreverent thought
agitated his soul
In reviewing his ministry, at a time when oonscious that he
was. near his end, he said to his brother, (Rev. T. D. Cook),
with great solemnity : " It is marked with some failures, but on
the whole I regard it a success. I feel that I have comforted
some sorrowful souls, and strengthened some that were ready to
falter in the race set before them." He possessed a rare faculty
for speaking to the sorrowing and comforting the afflicted. His
sympathies were active and tender. When brought into com-
;nunion with the bereaved he apprehended their wants witli

Buch accuracy that at sucli times he seemed to be inspired —
the very incarnation of the comforter.
His MSfi. he confided to the care of his son-in-law, Rev. M.
B. Carpenter, of Lansing, Mich.
Soon af\er he was taken down with his last illness, being con-
vinced that his hour was come, he made all necessary arrange-
ments for his funeral, requested the Masonic Fraternity, to
which he belonged, to have charge of it, and desired that the
sanctuary should not be draped in black on that occasion, but
that it should be decorated with flowers. To his wife, then
prostrated by sickness {Tnd over-exertion, and to his childreDy
he expressed himself with a husband's and a father's affection,
and commended them to the care of their heavenly guardian
and benefactor; and to some friends to whom he was under
peculiar obligations he expressed the gratitude of a full heart.
To his brother he said : '* 0 brother, I have preached for the
last few years the glories of eternity, as they have appeared to
my faith, with more earnestness and unction than ever before
during my ministry." ''And how do all these things appear to
you now, as you feel yourself in the presence of death"? it
was asked. " Brighter than ever ; aye, brighter than ever ! "
was the prompt and energetic response. At another time, he
fiaid : '' If, as ministers of Christ, we would bring within the
sweep of our vision of faith all the glories of the future life, as
they now appear to me, and preach themi in the demonstration
of the spirit, we should turn the world upside down. We
should have no drowsy hearers, and no drones in the
pulpit."
In this triumphant and blessed frame of mind he passed to
his eternal rest; and by his faith ''he being dead yet
speaketh."

He was born in PlatUborg, Steuben Co., N. Y., NoTember
27thy 1831, and died in Williamston, Mich., on Saturday, Jane
17th, 1871, being in the 40th year of his age. His disease was
consumption. His parents moved to Farmington, Oakland
County, Michigan, when he was about three years old. How
long he lived there we are not informed, but probably not many
years, as he states that he subsequently lived in Hartland,
Howell and Conway, in Livingston" Co., and afterwards in
Portland and Lansing. He probably lived in the last named
place at two different times as it appears that during his stay in
Lansing he had been connected with both the Baptist and
Methodist Churches. He became a ^communicant in the
TJni versalist church during his stay in Portland. In bis 'yoatL
and early manhood be was employed as a stage-driyer, during
which period he became deeply interested in the subject of
religion. In the Methodist Church he preached occasionally,
but being tenderly interested in the welfare of souls he uncon-
sciously came into the views of Universal ists, which he hesita-
ted not to proclaim openly, as soon as he was fully established
in them ; which, of course, caused a separation from that church
and a union with ours. This probably took place in the year
1859, as, at a meeting of the Grand River Association for that
year, he was reported as having preached to the Society at
Locke for 18 months. He was ordained in July, 1861. He
was married in January, 1862, to Miss Ada Lewis who proved
an excellent co-worker with him all along his ministerial life.
September 9th, 1862, he enlisted as a private soldier in
Company D, 4th Regiment, Michigan Cavalry, from Conway,
Livingston Co., and on the 9th of June, 1865 he was honora-
bly dischaiged from the service. His regiment formed a part
of the Army of the Potomac. He was promoted to the office

of Sergeant and was bigblj esteemed while in the service, both
for his soldierly and Christian qualities. While in the armj he
was religiously active, forming religious associations among the
" boys " for their moral and spiritual culture. On leaving the
army he again resumed his ministerial work, and continued to
labor unremittingly until death.
Mr. Olds was not a thoroughly educated man, as the reader
may infer from what has been said, but he made the best use of
his opportunities, was a diligent student, and an ardent advocate
of education and of everything that can advance and bless
mankind. He was a stirring and energetic preacher, thorough*
}y devoted to his work as a minister of the Gospel, and espec-
ially earnest in urging upon believers the importance of bring-
ing forth the practical fruits of their religious faith.
During the last stages of his sickness he was frequently inter-
rogated by his partialist friends to know if his faith yet satisfied
him ; so he had placed on the wall, back of his bed, one of his
Sabbath School banners, with the inscription: '' Universalism
now and Universalism forever I" to which when too weak to talk
he would refer them. Having arranged all his affairs in minute
detail for his departure he finally slept in Jesus, and his earthly
struggle was ended as his soul rose to join the bright company
in the home above.

gentleman. His wife was amiable, intelligent and accomplished.
Her father being wiih them on a visit, they rode over the river
into Weaihersfield, Vl., and were returning home about noon of
June 28th, when, as is supposed, they mistook the ferry for a
ford, and attempting to drive across they came unexpectedly to
a steep shelving bank where the channel became suddenly deep,
they drove off, and all were drowned. Their bodies were
recovered about 4 o'clock the same day. This most melancholy
and shocking casualty filled the Claremont parish and the whole
nelMiborhood with consternation, and sent a thrill of agony
throu<»h many a heart. Alas for the survivore of their respec-
tive families, so heavily afflicted by a threefold bereavement,
and in so sudden and strange a manner.
Their remains were taken to Abington, Mr. Cushing's home,

Mr. Rose died of consumption, at his residence, near Anna-

time, and for two years had been entirely unable to preach.
He was ordained a Universall.st preacher, we are told, in Iowa,
May 24, 1851, and licensed by the Convention of that State at
its annual meeting in 1852. His labors since that time have
been mostly in that State and in Illinois, a few years only
having been spent in Indiana, in and near tlie neighborhood
where he finished his days. He loved to preach the Gospel,
thinking more of its proclamation than the compensation he
should receive. He was a clear thinker, a good reasonor, and
an excellent textual preacher, being thoroughly conversant
with King James's version of the Bible, as well as the different
rei^derings of disputed passages. He died as he had lived, in

Miss Rebecca W. Cleverley, of Hingham, Mass. He fitted
for the ministry under the direction of Rev. Sylvanas Cobb^
having previously spent some (ime in study at Phillips' Aca-
demy, Andover, Mass. He was ordained to the G<»pel
ministry in 1834, and first settled in Provincetown, then in
Chatham, Mass., then in Nashua, N. H., and then in New
Ipswich, N. 11. His health failing, he removed to Boston, and
preached regularly for a period in Canton, afterwards in Chel-
sea, and then in North Bridgewater, Mass. His strength not
being equal to the work, he was jjt length obliged to relinquish en-
tttely the active duties of the ministry. Nine weeks before his
death he had a shock of paralysis. From that time to the close of
\uA life he was thoroughly aware of his condition, and prepared
for his end. He was able to converse with his phyfeician, bis
wife, and the other friends who were ministering to him. His
resignation to the will of God was remarkable. He was sus-
tained by the faith which he had in years gone by held forth to
others as the satisfactory and suflScient faith, and his dying was
ai one gently and calmly falling to sleep.
These are but the merest outlines of a good nmn's life. We
say a good man, not as a matter of form and routine, but
because he was such emphatically. He was diffident, modest,
unpretending, and did not get the wide recognition of some
men, but the influence of his character was pure, and the best
results of faithful Christian service are found in every parish
in which he labored. The clergymen who have followed him
in his several fields of labor have had cause to speak in praise
of his good works and of his excellent spirit.

REV. CARL. SCHAtJM.
Mr. Schanm died at his residence in Kingston, N. J., August
Ist, 1871. Betiring at the usual hour, in apparently good
health, his waking was in that eternal world where there is no
night. While calmly sleeping, and without a struggle, he
passed on into the Father's house. His disease was probably
apoplexy.
Mr. Schaum was a native of Germany, and received his
education in the Universities of his native country. For
several years he has been idenlilled in form, as he was in faith
and sympathy, with the Universalist Church. For a time
he preached regularly to a small German Society in East New
York. After leaving it he removed to Kingston, N. J.,
devoting his week days to the culture of some land, and on
Sundays preaching, as he had opportunity, to German com-
munities in the neighborhood. Measures had been taken by
the Missionary Society of the Philadelphia Union Association
to give him constant employment as a missionary among the
German people of Southern Pennsylvania. He had entered
recently upon this woi-k, and the impression he made among
the friends whom he visited was most favorable, and much
benefit was aiiticipated from his labors, to those who could
understand him, and with whom he could sympathize in that
section. His sudden death leaves an interesting field of labor
vacant.
Mr. Schaum was somewhat advanced in life, but of his exact
age we are not informed. He is spoken of by those who knew
him as a genial, pure-minded, kind-hearted, christian man, who
was sincerely desirous of advancing the cause of Christianity,
as understood by us, among the German people of this cbuntry.
He leaves a family, but we are unable to give any particnlitfs

1871, while in attendance on the annual meeting of the Upper
Wabash Association, at Woodville, near Logansport, Indiana.
He left his home in Lafayette, Ind., only the day before, in the
best of spirits, and in his usual good health. He attended the
business meeting during the day, and did not complain of any
illness until at the time of the evening service, when he was
taken with congestion of the stomach and bowels, and was quite
sick during the night. The next morning he felt so much
better that be got out of bed and dressed himself, and gave
some advice in respect to the business of the Association. But
soon after his friends, who had been in consultation with him,
had left him for the morning services at the Church, they were
summoned back to the house, but not in season to see him
alive, for at 10^ o*clock, in a moment when no one was looking
for any such thing, he passed awny quietly and without pain.
3Ir. Brace was bora in Bennington, Vt, in the year 1812,
making him about 59 at the time of his decease. His parents
were Methodists of the strictest sort, and in their faith he was
early taught and trained ; but when about eighteen years old,
he began to read and investigate for himself on do(;^rinal points,
and soon reached the conclusions that he has stood by ever
since. In his early manhood he studied medicine, and practised
a short time, and then entered the ministry. He had been weU
and i^idely known in the Denomination as a consecrated and
indefatigable worker, who, by his persevering and self den jing
efforts, has done much to give tone and shape to our Denomi-
national af&irs. He was ordained, August 13, 1843. He has
had settlements in some of the Eastera States, also in Michi-
gan, Ohio and Indiana, and in all he was " a man of good
report'* In Lafayette, the place of his residence and labor at

the time of his death, he had wrought faithfullj and effectually,
and endeared himself not only to Unirersalists but to people
of all denominations. Our church at Lafayette Is largely the
result of his fidelity, and the fact that he had entered upon the
fourth year of his pastorate with brighter prospects than ever,
indicates the strong hold he had upon his people.
Upon the occasion of his death, afler numerous and persistent
but unavailing efforts to secure the service of a Universalist
minister at the funeral, it was conducted by resident clergymen
of the Methodist and Baptist Churches in Lafayette, and in
a very appropriate, impressive and acceptable manner. His
remains were escorted to the chwrch and cemetery by a proces-
sion of Masonic, Odd Fellow and Temperance Societies, and
at the grave the peveral orders opened their ranks to permit the
Sunday School children (of whom he was so proud and who so
loved their pastor) and the congregation to pass through to
witness the last sad rites paid to the remains of their beloved
shepherd.
He leaves a wife and daughter in Lafayette, and two
daughters by a former marriage, who reside in the East

REV. NATHANIEL GUNNISON.
Mr. Gunnison was bom in Gashen, Sullivan County, N. H.,
February 4, 1811, and died very suddenly at West Waterville,
Me., on Friday, August 25, 1871, in the sixty-first year of his
age. His father and mother died before his remembrance, and
he had severe struggles, caused by ill health and poverty, in
his early life. In 1834 he married Miss Sarah Ann Richardson,
daughter of D. Richardson, of Goshen. In 1836 his wife died,
leaving him an infant daughter ; and this bereavement, it is said,
having turned his mind to the Gospel ministry, in April, 1837, he

commenced studying, with that object in view, under the direction
of Rev. Aaron L. Balch, of Newport, N.H. His first settlement
was on Cape Cod, in Massachusetts, where, in the Fall of 1837,
he commenced preaching to the Societies in Brewster, and North
and South Dennis. Nov. 15, 1837, he was ordained. On the
12th of August, 1838, he was married to Miss A. L. Foster,
of Brewster, who has proved a most faithful companion in all
the relations of life to the hour of his death. In the
spring of 1839 he became a teacher in the Academj in
Provincetown, Mass., where he was also engaged to preach for
one-hnlf of the lime. Thence, in March 1840, he removed to
Manchester, N. H., and in the following jear, to Hallowell,
Me., where he continued as pastor four years, and afterwards
for &ye years, (still residing in Hallowell), he preached in
Sidney, West Waterville, East Vassalboro, Winthrop, and other
towns in the vicinity. In April, 1850, he removed to Abington,
Mass., and took charge of the Universalist Society there for
eeveml years. From 1855 to 1857 he resided in Annisquam,
Mass. From 1857 to 1865 he lived in Halifax, N. S*.,
and his ministry there was very successful. It commenced and
continued through a season of general financial prosperity in
the Province. The Reciprocity Treaty with the United
States proving of great advantage to the Provincials, the
Society in Halifax shared in the general prosperity, gained
numerically, and otherwise advanced under Mr. Gunnison's
labors.
He was quite polemical in his preaching. At one period
the Bishop of the English Church assailed him, and not having
a correct knowledge of our doctriues, laid himself open to many
a home thrust from Mr. G's well-wielded sword. The contro-
versy was greatly extended, and was both oral and written.
The result was that the Episcopal Church lost ground in the
controversy, lost members, and the Universalist Church gained
a corresponding increase.

The Meeting House was enlarged, a new organ was pur-
chased, and the finances of the Society placed in a hopeful
condition. The civil war in our country broke out toward the close
of Mr. G's pastorate. Halifax was entirely in sympathy with^the
South ; Mr. G. stood almost alone in his defence of the North, and
gave offence to some of the leading members of the Society, by his
active exertions for the North, while acting in his capacity as
Deputy Consul of the United States. This state of feeling led
Mr. Gunnison to resign his charge. In 1865 he removed to
Norway, Me., and in 1869 to Dexter, Me., and in both places
he was an efficient minister. In Dexter the Society was resus-
citated, and their Meeting House rebuilt during his pastorate.
In the Fall of 1870 he had several shocks of paralysis
which disabled him for service. Afler resting for a while
and partially recovering his health, he sought for a situation
where less severe labor would be required of him, and removed
to "West "Waterville, in the early summer of 1871, and was
laboring there when the summons came to put off his armor
and lay down in the sleep of death. But his ambition and
ardor far exceeded his bodily strength. On the Sunday before
his death he preached twice — in West Waterville in the
morning, and in Sidney, five miles away, in the afternoon, —
so that he truly died with the harness on. He was of a
sanguine temperament, of decided and positive convictions,
ardent and impulsive in his feelings, and an earnest and
indefatigable worker.
He leaves a wife and ^ve children, one of them being He v.
Almon Gunnison, of" Brooklyn, N. Y. His funeral took place
on the 25th of August, in West Waterville, but his remains
were taken for interment to Abington, Mass., where, also,
funeral services were held on the 26th of August In every place
where he has labored, in a ministry of thirty-four years, he left
numerous friends, and gave powerful impetus to ti^e cause of
truth.

The onlj intelligence ooncerning Mr. Bowsman wLich we
have been able to obtain comes from a Committee on MeiDo-
rialsof the Indiana Convention for 1871, who saj that ^'for
manj years past the venerable form of David Bowsman has been
familiar to the members of our State Conventions. His gentle
manners, zealous spirit and upright conduct have marked him
as an honorable example of the Univcrsalist Christian. We
feel that in his death this Convention has lost a faithful officeF,
and the church a good man." His office, his age, his period of
service in the ministry, and manj other particulars which we

MRS. ELVIRA J. POWERS.
Mrs. Powers, late of the Canton Theological School, and s
Licentiate of the New York State Convention, died in Worces-
ter, Mass., September 21, 1871. We learn that she rendered
good service to her country during the war of the Rebellion in
the office of nurse, and wrote an interesting book of her expe-
riences, entitled "Hospital Pencilings." In 1866 she be«^n to
read Theology with the purpose of becoming a preacher of the
Gospel, and entered the Canton Theological School but was
compelled by ill health to leave the school at the end of six
months, and gradually failed from that time onwanl. A friend
and former pastor, speaks of her personal worth in veiy strong '
terms. " In fidelity to her conviction of duty, in her industiy,
zeal and integrity, in her constant sacrifice of the superficial and
temporal for the profound and eternal, her life was a great sao-

REV. J. T. GOODRICH.
This brother, it woald appear, must have perished in the
Great Fire of Chicago, October 7-9, 1871. It is known that
he was to be in Chicago about the time the coniiagratioa
occurred, — ^he being engaged in business connected with the
Chenango Silver Mining Company of Colorado. It was subse-
quently ascertained that he was staying at the time at the
Metropolitan Hotel, (which was burnt) that his name was oti
the register and his bill unsettled. As he has not been seen
nor heard from since, his fate can not be doubtful, and bis
greatly afflicted family are forced to the dreadful conclusion
that he was carried to heaven in a chariot of £[r& We are
without particulars of Mr. Goodrich's history, excepting that
he had once been pastor of the Universalist Church in Oxford^
N. Y., and that more recently he has lived in WilmingtoD,

COMPARISON OF 1836 AND 1872.
Statistics are dry reading, but, if authentic, they may become
instructive and valuable, and sometimes have force beyond thd
power of rhetoric Our humble Begister has now reached its
thirty-seventh number, having been commenced in 1836.
By comparing our Denominational strength, as far as the
Register will enable us to do so, for the years 1836 and 1872,
we find good ground for encouragement.
In 1836 we had in the United States and Territories 308
Preachers, 653 Societies and 245 Meeting Housea
Li 1872 we have 633 Preachers, 944 Parishes, or SocietieSi
and 724 Meeting Houses.
In addition to the mere numerical increase, which is not
always a decisive evidence of prosperity, we ought to add to
the latter figures about twenty-five per cent for the better
education and superior culture of our preachers, the increased
value of our Church Edifice?, and the more thorough and
efficient organization of our Societies. Besides, we are to
remember that our Church and Sunday School organizations,
the reservoirs, if not the springs of spiritual life, culture and
power, are in the main the growth of the last thlrty-siz
years.
The tables we have compiled give 482 Churches, with
24,531 members, which is doubtless below the fact, and there
are, probably, at least 500 churches with 25,000 members. So
also the 439 Sunday Schools, with 43,286 members, reported
to us, probably fall short of the truth, and 450 Schools with

44,000 members would be nearer tbe reality. Our Colleges^
▲cademied and Professional Schools are to be taken into
account also as engines of immense power in shaping our future
as a Denomination. And the newlj-awakened Missionarj
Spirit, the more perfect organization of our ecclesiastical
bodies, and the grand, quickening influence of our recent Cen-
tennial Jubilee, with all the improvements it has engendered in
our plans for church extension and religious activity, promise
